Yea those single ones are useless. I bought one a couple years ago at wal-mart. They are too short to protect any of my better rods and it only carries one at a time.
My PVC rod holder does not accomodate the rod with the reel. This is the perfect solutions. It also has alot of storage inside of and on the side of the bag. At the end of the season I am going to put all of my fabric gear in there. ex. Jackets, vests, hats ect. To see if it can stay in form and upright in a closet.
