Quick take

An adjustable foam rod case for rods up to 8.5 feet with foam padding and lockable security.

This Plano adjustable rod case in sandstone stretches to carry rods up to 8.5 feet, so one tube can cover a range of rod lengths. Foam padding sits around the rod tips, and a lock keeps the case closed in the truck or on the road. It suits anglers who haul assembled or broken-down rods to the water and want them kept together in one portable tube.
