Been using NGT tip and butt protectors for a few years. They do the job!

It's not the tip tops we're on about, its the adjustable rod sleeves mate:

Last miles longer than tip tops. I don't even bother with a quiver anymore. Just chuck the rods/sleeves on the barrow.

Seeing a lot of love for the Thinking Angling adjustable tip tops, here and on another forum.
And less elastic to perish?

Agreed. i recently moved over to the TA sleeves and quiver and love it, so much more versatile especially for different set ups. Even went the whole hog and got their Spod rod sleeve which is also great.

Agree, the elastic tip tops don't last 5 mins in my experience (especially the Nash ones!).
I moved on to the TA adjustable rod sleeves several years ago and they've been absolutely brilliant. So much so I bought a load of them for all my set-ups. They only have a short length of elastic which for some reason means they last literally years (my first set must be getting on for 10y old and still going strong).

NGT ones are pretty good tbf - especially if your putting rods in a bag/sleeve anyway and hiding the brand 'shame' (lol)
I like the Fox Black neoprene jobbies - a bit more compact and tight - keep rods together tightly without the need for a central rod wrap (if you take your leads off before packing away)
The Trakker variants (which are exactly the same product albeit in green) are almost twice the price!

Think i have tried all the elastic ones, Peak, Tackle Box, Nash etc. Elastic goes on all of them after a couple of years.
So stick to NGT Tip And Butt Rod Protectors Deluxe Neoprene now, seem to last forever.

Hi guys,
What rod protection are you all favouring? I'm currently rocking some NGTrod protectors, paired with their velcro bands 😂
All housed in my Fox, individual rod sleeves.
They've served me well but they're showing their age a bit and quite time consuming to unpack/repack...
What's the current thinking? Trending? - not that I have to follow the trend 😎
Thoughts?
