A compact 160 cm rod case that holds 2 to 3 rods with a reel attached, featuring nylon construction and foam lining.

The Daiwa Portable Rod Case 160P is a soft, straight-style case about 63 inches long that holds two to three rods, depending on rod type and diameter. Built-in cushioned foam and a wire-lined pocket pad the contents, and a zipper closes it. It folds down compact and carries on an adjustable padded shoulder strap, which suits anglers heading to the water or traveling with a few rods.
