rod storage for my Voyager

[picksbigwagon]

I was at the Big Cabela's yesterday in Owatonna, and they had rod cases/arrow cases for ice fishing in their fishing dept. $21 is what they were asking. Tonight I was in burnsville at Dick's Sporting goods, same exact case 10 bucks. I picked one up at Dick's sporting goods, it holds 4 rods perfectly. Keep your eyes open and keep on praying for ice.

pick - what brand are the bags and what do they look like? When I mod'd my Voyager a few years ago, I built in PVC rod tubes (see below), but found that it doesn't work as well as I had hoped. They're coming out of the house tonight and I need an alternative for rod storage.

I mounted my pvc horizontally on my back seat rail but it looks like that won't work on yours the way yours currently is.

Yeah - my experience with the PVC has been lots of snapped line and sharp edges grating on the reels/lines. I'll admit, it was a last minute addition and not too well thought out. Planning on moving to rob bags and using that slot (where the PVC is now) to store them there.

I filed the edges smooth where I notched it out but thanks for the heads up I'll give them another once over.

I bet a little duct tape over the edges would fix that!

They are arrow cases for bow hunters. It is in the hunting section the case is 10 o r 12" x 36" and 4-5" deep. it has a hunting seen on one side of it. It is a small gun case basically, but used to hold arrows. Go to Dick's and ask....

Thanks for the heads up, pick. I grabbed 2 of those cases over lunch today at Dick's, one for walleye rods and one for panfish rods. They are tagged $14.99 but rang up $9.99. Brand name is Dosko; specs read 36" x 12" x 3-3/4". The foam pads have slots cut in them to slide your rod right in so it doesn't bounce around/move. Here are a couple pics for anyone else who might like to see...
