Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Transporting rods via motorcycle

I don't have much insight into the motorcycle question - though a backpack with a rod tube (or tubes) sounds like a really good idea. Try Gear Ties (made by Nite Ize) to attach the tubes to the backpack.

As for the 7-piece rod, I have an 8-wt Orvis Frequent Flier and I love it! I use it more often than any other rod, and not because it's 7 pieces. In fact, I hardly ever even break it down.

Doers anyone have any tips for transporting 2 piece or 4 piece rods via motorcycle?  The 4 pieces are just barely too long to fit in the tour pack or the saddle bags, but it would make getting down to the Rap so much faster if I could take the HOT lanes.  Considering backpack with tube or affixing a tube to the bike, but open to ideas/solutions.  I attached a picture of my bike in case it helps and thanks in advance for any insight!

P.S.) I have considered buying a 7 piece for this exact purpose
