Abstract

A fishing rod carrying case, as best shown in FIG. 1, constructed from an essentially rectangular panel or sheet or flexible material. Pockets are mounted on said sheet, disposed along two opposite edges of said panel, and opening inwardly. Attaching means in the form of tie strings are attached to said sheet surface in proximate alignment with the pockets so that when one end of a rod or rod segment is inserted in one of the pockets the rod is secured to the sheet by means of the tie strings. The tie strings and pockets are disposed so that the rods are essentially parallel to each other when secured. The carrying case is assembled for transportation by rolling in a direction transverse to the affixed rods. Tie strings are affixed to an edge of said panel which is parallel to said rods so that said carrying case is secured in its rolled configuration. Carrying means consisting of a strap with hook means at opposite ends thereof is coupled to the rolled up case.
