I love that I can easily fit my rod, reel, flies and accessories all in one case. I do wish the case was a little more rigid so I could feel good about my rod being fully protected without a tube, but with the rod in a tube this case works just fine. Looks good, too.
The product is great. I would suggest that you make it 1 to 2 inches longer as some of my 9' - 4 piece rods would not fit. The various rod makers have different length rod tubes up to 2" longer. Thanks
