Title: WTB rod tube for Sage 3113.
Post by: hawg hunter on December 08, 2016, 05:30:41 PM

I have trip booked up north and my custom cp rod doesn't have a tube. I've called Fred's , Chilliwack dart and tackle, cabellas, Whilesale  sports. Nothing. I don't need a sage tube. Just need a hard tube to transport the rod in a plane.
I travel from Cloverdale to Surrey each day so can pick up in between. Also, in maple ridge often.
Thanks!

 I can borrow you Sage  3113 factory tube for the trip. I am in Burnaby.

If you don't take lapa up on his offer, make one out of PVC or ABS pipe. Glue a threaded cap on one end and a cap on the other. Wrap the ends of the rod with some sort of cushion so it fits snugly in the tube, maybe one in the middle if it's one of those notoriously bumpy coastal flights. Won't cost you much and works great.

I go with Noah's idea, cheaper than a factory rod tube.

Thank you very much for the offers and ideas. I think I might have a bead in one.

I've got a 3113 rod tube available if your lead doesn't work out.
