FISHRITE NEOPRENE ROD TOP PROTECTOR
Price: £ 6.99

Anglers who carry their rods already tackled up and in an open quiver type rod holdall always run the risk of fouling the protruding ends and causing, at best, a line breakage or, at worst, a rod tip or quiver tip breakage.

One way round this is to fit each rod with a top or tip protector, and this one from FISHRITE serves the purpose admirably.

Made from durable and stretchy neoprene the sleeves are split down the length to allow for a large butt ring and close together with a Velcro fastening.

They come in two sizes, a narrower one for the tip and a wider one for the butt.

FISHINGmagic VERDICT

I’ve broken my fair share of quiver-tips whilst carrying made up rods in quiver holdalls so a rod tip protector is a must.

This one from FISHRITE is well made and will accommodate most rods.
