Anyone use a Beam Bag?

I'm thinking of getting the 8 rod bag but I wish there was a picture of the inside. I have two of their combo's. One a straight line and one spin combo. Very good stuff so I'm thinking the bags are going to be good.

Description says there are velcro fasteners inside to hold rods in place which is what I'm looking for. Don't want all the rods just rolling around loose.

I fought a rod bag for a couple years. Bought a hard case last year and now I'm fishing while my buddy is getting his rods untangled and throwing a hissy fit. He even broke one rod a couple weeks back trying to get stuff figured out. Buy an HT bag for $10 first. When you get sick of it, burn it and buy a hard case. The HT case has Velcro too. Good Luck!

I talked to the folks at Beam yesterday. Seems they are coming out with a new case for next year. He wouldn't tell me much other than it was going to be a new design and probably be $100 plus. So I may get through this year and see what they come out with and reevaluate my needs for next year.

I use the otter case along with Clam rod sleeves. This is great combo for no tangles or broken poles. I can just throw the case in my sled and leave it in there until the next time I need a rod with no worries about [PoorWordUsage] bouncing around and breaking them.

    • Yeah it was a beatdown
    • Your kid needs to stay with him!👍
    • My kid was eating in Beverly Hills and ran into this guy. Talked to him a bit and wished him luck in the game tonight.     
    • 🤔as a recovering machinist!🤣🤣that must make me a recovering welder!
    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
