I was looking for an older pic and forgot about this one. I see a ton of rigs while driving to work heading north on 35 Thur/fri (mostly the Iowa boys), but this was my fav of all time that wanted to make me think about not turning to work and heading north! It’s serious business when you have a stack of 9 ft what I assume single piece fly rods and a ~drift boat!

Why not just put the rods in the boat? Maybe that’s how they do it in Iowa?
June 10, 2018 at 7:37 pm #1779501I don’t know who it is but there a few rigs running around like that. It is a pain to brake down all your fly gear every time you go out. I luckily can fit my 9′ rods in my crew cab without taking them apart.

That’s the first thing I thought of when I saw the pic. Wouldn’t the reels fill with bug guts?
June 11, 2018 at 12:28 pm #1779673I’ve see youtubes from out west where they use those rod holders. Fly reels typically come with a neoprene case that will wrap around the handle.
I would think you’d use something like that if you had everything already set up and were moving to a different spot but who knows.

That dude is either from Idaho or is pretending he wants to be
