Is their such a backpack?
All right, so I'm always carrying around a old cheap school backpack when I go fishing, but most of the time I'm now only carrying 1 rod, I get sick of going back and getting the other. Problem is, is I have 4 rods. I'd like to be able to carry more than one rod with me at a time. So I was wondering if they a pack pack like this, but has something on the side or a flap on the front that has 4 of these. I'd be great if you guys could give me a link to one or show me how to make one!
Thanks guys!

Did you do a google search for one. I saw one in a mag the other day that held 2 rods. That would give you three counting the one u carry.
If not get one of these white pvc rod holders at bass pro item# 21-531-969-00 and just find a way to rig it to you backpack. Doesn't have to look good.

That link didn't work, they do have tons of bags though! I didn't see anything that carried more than two rods.

Hmm, we're getting there. Something like this is pretty much what I'm after.
But that's just a bag with rod holders, not a backpack with rod holders. ~~~~~~~~~ Found this on Cabelas! http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/te...327&hasJS=true It's more like a backwards fanny pack, but it holds two rods (good enough for me), and tackle!

How are you going to cast with rods either sticking up behind you or on either side of you?
When shore fishing, I take my bag and 4 rods. Carry the bag in one hand the rods in the other. Going back to get your stuff is just part of shore fishing. BB

Islandbassser built something of his own, I'm sure you could search the site and find it. I'm pretty sure he carries 4 rods in it...

That looks like a recipe for getting hooked somewhere on your body to me, rod whipped at the very least. |

Yea I set up a headquarters and work from there...I take 4 in-ground rod holders (I dont like laying my rods on the ground)..I strap those to the top of my bag and shoulder it and carry all my rods in one hand usually.
Alot of the places I fish have too many low limbs and duck downs for me to carry my rods vertically.

BB, Listen to Big Bassin on this. You are going to quickly discover what he said is true. UPDATE: Well, I did a quick search and it turns out the links to my pics are no longer valid so the pics can't be seen in the past posts. Keep the quiver upright or prop it up on your bag like this. It will keep your gear dirt and scratch free. The rod quiver in action being held by my evil twin. No more holding multiple rods with just your fingers. 3 rods easily held. This quiver can also be made to hold more rods simply by choosing a different shape. Also, as you can see, I use a backpack too.

I have a tackle bag. It does the job, but it doesn't hold rods like you want it to be. Good links by the way.
