Why did we purchase a fishing reel case?
My wife is a flight attendent for a major airline carrier. That means we travel and a lot. I do take my fishing gear with me because I don't like using other peoples gear.
  Plano Reel Storage Case - $14.00
A couple of years ago, I was talking to another avid fisherman who travels to Alaska every year to fish. He also brings his own equipment and he is the guy who told me about the Plano fishing reel case. Now I tell everyone about it.
Over the last 25 years of traveling all over the world, we have seen a lot of soft bags torn open and items inside missing.
After years of watching the baggage handlers, I now carry all my reels with me on the airline. After a few years of stuffing paper in my backpack only to have the corner of my fishing reel digging into my back, I broke down and bought a fishing reel case.
Now, I can bang it around, let the kids carry it and drop it without worry. The only thing I have to get better at is NOT leaving it in the airport. And I've done that a few times. Funny how many people turn it in without taking it home with them, but YES, I have been lucky.
This case easily fits underneath the seat in front of you, with room left over to put your legs beside it. Suffice it to say the Plano fishing reel case protects my reels like an egg. It has a few major dings in it to prove my point.
Taking your own fishing rods and reels on your vacation is the only way to go. If we could recommend taking your own bed we would tell you to do that as well. *smile*
The beauty of this fishing reel case is the size, weight and amount of protection it provides. No matter where you are traveling, if you bring your own gear consider using this case. If you are heading out on a fishing vacation and you have to fly, nothing is as simple as this case below. Heck for $14.00 you can have all the fishing reel protection you need.
We purchased the hard
fishing reel case made by Plano
to carry our reels.
Every year we take a family vacation on house boats. It is amazing how much abuse this fishing reel case takes and keeps on protecting
all my reels.
You will not be disappointed.
