Carrying rods on a bike...
Well I had a good day turn bad a week ago. It was right after school, strapped my rod on my bike, rode down to the river...caught some fish.(Reports are in worldwide reports section). On my way back I strapped it on different cause I couldnt remember exactly how I had it like the first time. I used bungy cords like before and it was fine.
The next day when I got down to the river I go my rod ready, pulled some line out and on my first cast the rod snapped about 2 eye holes down. I was suprised and very mad. I had strapped the rod on too hard and it cracked it I guess and I just finished it off with that first cast. Glad to say it was my "bad" trout rod. From then on I have been puting my rods in the tubes and strapping them on that way. Worked out fine yesterday. |

Well, I dont know if you have ever lived in California, but what a lot of surfers do is get attachments on the side of their bikes to carry their boards. I dont know how to descibe it, but you could put your rods on that and it wou ld work.
