Carrying a fishing rod.

[Wes]

You could always invest in a rod holdall, these always come with an across the chest(diagonally) strap, you can get them in rigid tube type or material, small enough to carry just one rod with a bit of room for the landing net handle and banksticks.
Shearwater main lake is a superb fishery, just wouldn't fancy carrying all my kit on the blade

Looked at those too, but the fish in the lakes ive been looking at would die of laughter! Lol!

yes i was dreading catching a real fish but for the money i was suprised how good it was,

sure you could make something from some drainage pipe its cheap stuff and they do screw on caps for it aswell you can get it cheaper but heres the idea its about 110mm in diameter

Cheers for the help folks, my issues are near to being solved, courtesy of Ebay and a shimano travel rod.
