Best Rod Case out there??

Recommended Posts

I am getting rid of my rod case because every time i bring my rod out my lure gets caught on the fleece. I have heard of a case called JR's or something, also i looked at the stone legacy revolution but wanted to hear your guy's input.

JR's has a good bag. It's not a rigid bag but works well for protecting rods. I have one that I use.

The Stone Legacy revolution is a very good case and will provide your rods better protection.

I have a couple of Marcums new rod paks and they are very nice. The ice pack also has a spot to add your Marcum if you have one with a built in Golf bag style pop out stand.

I like my Stone Legacy bags.

Thorne Bros has a new bag as well this year which is really nice.

And since you mentioned you were snagging your hooks in your rod bag, you need to check out the Tackle Pouches made by Today's Tackle. They can be used as lure wraps which will keep you hooks out of the fabric in your rod bag.

I really like the hard sided cases as I tend to be somewhat rough with my gear. Otter Outdoors has a hard sided case that is tough and will hold 4 rods.

When I'm traveling across a lake pulling my portable and knowing that things may shift a little in the tub, I know my more expensive rods will not be broken incase of a bad bounce or from hitting a chunk of ice.

If things get moving around in the back of my pick up, my rods are safe.

I have one of the Thorne Bros bags. I believe they are made by JR's and are the same as the JR logoed ones. As far as non-hard sided cases go, they are great. They come with 4 removable rod sleeves to protect tips and guides. I would check them out. I'm happy with mine.

My Revolution gets used more than any rod bag I have. Lots of storage and good protection for the rods. Never broke a rod in it and thats even when hauling it in my Otter at 50mph.

Get them while you can I dont think they are being made any more.

Hill, if you dont mind can I ask where you looked at the revolution bags at? that is the kind i am looking to get for a x-mas gift for friday and it is the only thing on his list.

Thanks

Joel

Ps... Im not even against buying a used one if someone is looking to part with one.

bulldoggie-

From what I understand, darn near everyone who ever carried Stone Legacy is out of the bags. From what I understand (now remember this is complete rumor/"what I've heard") the company was sold or bought out and the products became unavailable. In the last 2 weeks, their HSOforum has come back online selling products again. I would try there. Its easy to find- world wide web (Contact Us Please) stone legacy (Contact Us Please) com.

    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
    • I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.
    • reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
