Flying With Spey Rods

[fishpro]

Has anyone ever taken a spey rod as their carry on luggage? I know that 4 piece single hand rods in tubes are allowed, but was wondering about the longer spey tubes? Thanks

I'd call the airline your travelling with and ask, provide dimesions to them. Most aircraft are equipped with a large closet up front for which allowable carry on luggae that will not fit in the overhead bins is for. You can also check it prior to boarding the aircraft itself, they call it sky check. It will be brought back out the the cabin door once you land... I do with my kids stollers all the time.
