Which rod holdall?

#1 Post by alby »

Hi all, i'm sick off carrying rods, tripods beach shelter etc 1/2 mile down beach at night, I was wondering whats the best holdall to carry all the gear in one, the Veals Quiver Holdall looks good value and apparently has a section for your beach shelter, anyone used the veals or titan one??

i use the titan and it has done me for a number of years though the bottom pocket to hold the bottom of the tripod is now starting to tear.mustad one is fairly cheap.

I have been using an Ian Golds holdall for the last three monts they are great you can get your beach buddy in and it has a pocket for your tripod. It is very robust and has a very strong bottom it should last for ever.I think most of the tackle shops stock them including swords hardware who have a good stock of fishing tackle and frozen bait.
Kstaff has always been the new black in my eyes anyway!!!!!!!

If you want to get rods, tripod etc all in one bag, have you looked at a ski bag? There long enough and if they can take a pair of skis, then you'll probably get most of your stuff in....

Like Paul Mason says, the Ian Golds rod carrier is the best on the market, they come in 2 sizes, both have a zip down the side so you place your rod inside instead of ramming it in (no broken guides) the large one will carry a tripod on the outside any beach shelter and at least 4 rods inside, it has a drain hole in the bottom to let any water or sand escape too.

Fully lined with duel handles and a padded shoulder strap, got to be great value for money.
