alhuger Posted November 12, 2007 Posted November 12, 2007 All, I stopped by Fish Tales today looking for a case for the TFO DC 12.6 I bought from them. As it turns out they have a Sage case which has a carry handle and storage for reels. I picked it up and it comfortably fits both my Sage 13.6 in addition to the DC plus 1 reel, 2 spares and a roll of tape. Good purchase thinks I although it was 95 (circa). Quote
toolman Posted November 13, 2007 Posted November 13, 2007 Nice...I'll have to take a look at it the next time that I stop in at FT's. Fortuneately, I have storage which allows me to keep my 4 Spey rods fully assembled, ferrules taped, reels mounted, lined and ready to go on the car racks to transport them when fishing locally. It saves me a lot of time that I can spend on the water and I am more inclined on most days to bring two rods, one for nymphing and another for streamers with tips or in the summer I can set up one as a wet line swing rod and the other as a dry line swing rod. Now I need a good rod rack to stand the rods in for safe storage, when not in use. I have not been able to find one yet, so I may have to get Glenbow to build me one...I better make it expandable to hold a dozen rods...gotta think ahead. Quote
speyghillie Posted November 13, 2007 Posted November 13, 2007 Hey Toolman, Good to see your still getting out fishing, the Spey is finished for the season now, but i,ve been out Troot fishin and trying a couple of short spey rods ,(Bow Style). Here is a link to the rod carriers that you have, www.vac-rac.com . I will be over in January i hope , so any members of the forum that wants a set can get them from me duty and shipping free, as they will be in the suitcase. Hope we can meet up in January Toolman, i was told it's nice ,sunny and warm in Calgary in January. Thanks Gordon. Quote

Those rod holders looks like a great idea but they would not fare well where I usually fish, my rods would be snapped to *hit from tree overhangs or gravel. I think they would rock for the bow though, if you still love them next season I may take the risk. -al Quote
