ROD HOLD ALL

[fagan]

ive been looking to change my rod hold all cause i dont like the velcro stap on the top were u have to push the rods down into the bag, ive damaged the rings on 1 rod trying to get my rods down. do u know any rod hold alls that have a zip that opens the whole way down the bag????

shakspeare salt is good, the zip doesnt open all the ways down but goes about half way.

The salt extends at the bottom too ,so will comfortably take any rod.

ya i agree with the lads on the salt bag,,i just got a new one,,,the only thing i will say is leave your bag well up the beach,,,my last one was a victim of a few surges and the salt water destroyed the zips but bar that they are an excellent bag and great value for money,,,i dont like the idea of these bags with one end open

Ian Golds one is excellent with zipped access.

Have to agree with the lads, have been using the salt rod holdall for the last couple of years and find it great, a spray every so often of wd40 or similar spray and you'll have no problems with the zips also great feature is that the holdall extends.

Salt is defo the best takes 2 rods and stand easily, It also has a nice comfortable strap.

well...one problem what i had with "salt" long one,was closed bottom,everything else is super,but i cut the extender part,then burn with lighter places where was cuten, to stopit to rip itself,so now i can always take out the bottom to get sand out....

I'm with all the lads who said Ian Golds, Had mine years, will easily take four rods, one with the reel still attached. External pocket/straps for tripod.
I think all salt water gear needs a bit of maintenance to keep the zips free and running well but as previously said a squirt of wd40 sorts it out.
