All my fishing life I have set up my rods at the waters edge, but now I want to take my rods to the water tackled up. My research has shown that there are sleeves quivers and holdalls. But what will be best for me? What are the pros and cons of the systems on offer? Are there any particular brands I should look at and are there any I should ignore?
I generally prefer 11ft rods but I do have some 2 piece 12 ft’ers, but these are more problematic partly because longer rods don’t fit in the car too easily. I expect a 12 ft sleeve will be longer and bulkier than a 12ft rod and cause me even more transport problems. And if I go the full protection sleeve route there are very few 11ft sleeves.
I am a small river angler predominantly. I would like to carry two rods made up, a bomb and a trotting rod. But would probably carry a couple of other rods not tackled up.
there seems to be a Korum folding quiver thing that will do, but it looks enormous in the pictures. I assume I will need some tip protectors or some sort of hood for it as well.
your opinions / advice please.
