I tried them with Penn rival 6000 blacks. They're a little longer than my XTC's are but width about the same.

I've got the Cult tackle one, it's plenty big enough, my rods having 40mm Rimgs and I use 8000 Baitrunners on them and they are lost inside.
It's got an outside pouch and strap that I use for my Spod Rod in a cult single sleeve and Banksticks and just strap a net to the back of it, a nice compact package.

The only thing I don't like about it is there is literally no padding on it at all, it's just a single ply nylon, but it's was £30 from memory and I'm using cheap Ultimate Bionic Rods so not too fussed, if I was using kit that was a bit more precious I'd definitely be looking for something else.

I also use the latest ESP Quickdraw 3 rod holdall, it's probably the best holdall I have owned for space and ease of fitting rods/reels since it has 3 separate rod sections, each with an individual zipper.
Both the ESP and Sonik extractable rods I own fit and easy to fit big pit reels and 50mm rings.

2nd vote for the Trakker NXC-R

Good amount of room but compact too

I use the ESP QuickDraw 3 rod hold-all with Shimano 5500s, I like it as the reels go in face down with plenty of room.

Good feedback mate

Out of interest, what reels are you using?

I found both the Speero and the Korda one tight around the reels - bail arms stuck out quite a bit and was a faff making sure they were facing towards the blank to help sliding them in.

Like I said, I tried a few 😂😂

Like the look of the Speero Retractable Rod Bag DPM, looks like the Cotswold stuff that I have. Anybody using the one for retractable rods, will I get a decent sized reel in there?

As mention the, the Cult tackle one.ihave the two rod version and manage to get two rods with big pit reels in one side. The other side holds another rod woth a few other bits thrown in there. Throwing stick etc. Brilliant holdall at a good price.

The cult ones offer less protection than the sleeves, but the are massive
