Hiking w/ fly rod

I strap a tube outside my pack.

I make the tube out of PVC that is used for central vacuum systems, its light weight (thin wall) but very durable. I have used it for rods as carry on for flights too. I glue one end, and the friction fit is good and I use a wide elastic band to secure the other.

Hardly ever use the rod tubes that come with them now, too heavy.

I have the four piece rods for packing and use a light weigth homemade plastic tube on my day pack to safely get them where I'm going. I some times carry my frame pack for better protection depending on where I am wandering about......

I don't carry my St.Croix rods for "off trail" fly fishing.....
