Marcum Rod-Pac

[tbeste]

Anyone know where I can find one of these? I have called around to all the big guys(Reeds, Scheels, Marine General, Thorne Bros) and no dice so far. I am getting desperate to find one... Anyone have a used one they want to part with? Email me if you know of any carryover stock for sale or if you have a used one you want to part ways with.

Thanks in advance

I have one, but not willing to part with it. it did have issues where the seam/rivets ripped out. And not very many were made.. but once reinforced.. they are the best rod bag out there!.. bar none!!!

Korky's doesn't have them and won't be getting any. I already tried to order one from there and the order got cancelled since Marcum is no longer selling this item.

The marcum rod pacs were complete garbage, you don't want one. Awesome design, junk construction and materials. I went through the hassle of returning 3 of them before I just had to accept it as-is.

Now that I've invested a couple hours sewing and replacing rivets mine works well for shorter rods, but it isn't a good deal at all.

Back when Marcum had their service center in Anoka, I asked about the new rod pac. Through no prompting by me, they acknowledged the construction quality issues with their manufacturer. Not sure if this ever got fixed or not, since this was when they first came out.

Good Call Drewski!!!! I got the last one Ron had. After searching the last few days it may in fact be the last one in the retail world

If we ever cross paths I owe you a cold one!

Sorry you had bad luck with yours. I already have one, and after 2 seasons it has held up to my abuse quite well. I haven't had any of the stitching or rivet issues others have reported. I hope my 2nd one works out as well as my first has. Even if I have issues that I need to fix myself I will still have a better rod bag than anything else I have seen to date.

I believe you're talking about the Ice Pac and not the Rod Pac; two different items.

I personally dont like and style of rod holder but hard plastic

i have a hard plastic takedown shotgun case and it hold 6 combos and straps to the wheeler very nice

Yeah, you're right Dave, I was talking about the ice pac. The marcum folks at that time expressed a considerable disdain for the manufacturer. I'd be surprised if the ice pac was constructed any better, but don't really have any experience with that product..

The Gander Mt in Mankato has something similar. It's a plastic square rod box with a case that has a zippered tackle holder on one side. Not sure of the brand or cost. It was sitting inside one of the display houses.

[Dave]

I have both. Yes, the Ice Pac (the one that holds a flasher) has its issues but I LOVE the Rod Pac. No issues with the Rod Pac at all.

Thanks to Drewski for the tip, Ron @ FishhouseSupply, and Speedee delivery. My new rod-pac showed up today and it looks as good as my first one.

No problem. Hope you enjoy it!

I have an Icepac, and had the same ripping issue with the flasher pocket. I repaired it myself and haven't had any other issues since, and I do like it for its ability to house almost everything in small quantities. I won't be selling mine!
