Have been gradually changing all of my luggage over to the Korda Dark Camo and must say I'm massively impressed. well padded, zips work, tough material etc, etc.

Only gripe is some of the bits could do with proper carry handles and not just the grab handles on the side and they don't do the framed carryall, (which I love) in the dark camo, just the original colour.

Thanks, did you try the 5 rod or the non padded Divider version to see if any better? Will be testing in the shop at weekend. Odd design given Korda folks use big pit reels, albeit Daiwa

I have three 12'6 rods with 50mm ringing and Shimano Ultegra 14000 in the compac 5 rod... Fits great but due to the rings wouldn't try to fit any more in. Edit: the 50mm do have padded protectors on them as well, probably not needed in there really as it is well padded. So that is worth saying cos the rings take up more room with those on than without.

I have the compac padded rod sleeves and they were the only ones on the market that would accommodate my Aviators with AT TI forged rings. I have had them a few years now and they are still like new. Really well padded as well.

The Dark Kamo version of the 5 rod holdall has more room around the reel sections so you can get 5 big pits in them and it not be super tight.

I recently upgraded from the 12ft standard to the 13ft Dark Camo as it was super tight with 5x 12ft 6 rods in the 12ft rod holdall - although they did fit.

Agree with that. I have been changing from the standard range to the dark camo and have swapped out the 12ft 5-rod holdall for the camo version. It definitely seems to be slightly bigger around the reel area.

I've been looking at the 60lt rucksack but doesn't show you the main compartment anywhere just wondering if theirs room to fit a light pair of chest waders rolled up in it.
Many thanks

Korda confirmed that the 3 rod Olive version has now also been made larger, so should fit 3 rods with Aero tech 12000 size reels + 50mm rings, they did say thought it would be snug, but will fit. Will confirm once I've tested

I recently purchased the 3 rod version and my ultegra 14's fit in but is a snug fit. I really should of went for the 5 rod version.
Are you sure?
