Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Safely transporting Fly Rods

Andy,

When you carry that Safe Passage case, is it your only carry on or do you have a second bag also? Like a backpack........

I feel like if I tried to carry on a backpack and the safe passage case, I would be tackled. Maybe y'all just have better luck in airports than me.

I invested in one of the Orvis Safe Passage Carry all's about two years ago.  I use it more than I thought I would.  It's even great for storing fishing gear at home.  I've carried it on flights multiple times and, although a little awkward, it fits in the overhead compartments. I have the large one. Its also secure enough and stable if you were forced to check it, but I have never had too.  So, if you are taking more than one rod and reel, this is a great option.  It will everything you need and more.  Several brands make them but after my research, I thought orvis was the best bang for my buck, especially given their customer service.

Hey All,

I'm flying out to Grand Rapids in a couple of weeks to go drift the Pere Marquette for a couple of days. I've never flown with my fly rods before as I typically fish close to DC (no further than PA, WV, VA, DE). I was considering shipping my rods out to GR rather than either trying to bring on the plane or packing in my checked luggage. Just wanted to hear about people's experiences and thoughts on the matter.
