Hello all, I'm currently in the process of having some custom 12.6 Harrison made but I'm struggling to find a bag. All the ones I'm looking at on the tinternet don't show enough pics they just show 1 shot of the bag but nothing inside etc.

I have been looking at the Solar Camo 3+2 5 Rod Holdall 13Ft. But again there's just one picture of it. (Has anyone got a review on this bag)

So if anyone can give me some ideas on a 12.6 or 13ft rod bag with good padding. It's got too have plenty of room inside for some tourneys and 50mm but rings. I don't want it a tight squeeze as I've had bad experiences in the past with eyes bending and bail arm bending.

So please guys and gals any bags you know of please fire the links in here and you'll be doing me a solid.

Thanks in advance Rich.

I bought a sonik bank tek compact sleeve recently, really good padding and is compact but isn't! But of a tardis the way it opens up, holds my tournies with 50mm on the rods.

Tons of clips and pouches everywhere, but maybe not as cool as some brands

I'm not sure if you'd consider a quiver system but my 12'6 and now 13' Harrisons with Infinity xbrs live in Daiwa Infinity sleeves with quiver holdall, but they are the older type not the new multi length type.

Their luggage is very good based on my experience. I have a couple of their rod holdalls (12ft and the 12ft compact which is 2 up 1 down), and they are brilliant. Well padded, compact, and so far lasted well (I've had the 12ft for about 7 years and still feels as good as new)

I have the 12 ft compact 3 rod version for my Baby Pit setups, and agree - great bit of kit.
Probably too tight for bigger reels.
Bargain at AD at the moment.

I bought the 13ft Dark Kamo Korda Compac 5 rod holdall and its been a great piece of kit so far. Easily fits in my rods (12'6 Torrix) and reels (Ultegra CI4 & Dawia Spod) and plenty of room. I had the 12ft version of the compac and they did still fit but was very tight.
Are you sure?
