ashleymash Posted September 3, 2019 #1 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Hello, I have a question about bringing fishing poles on board the ship for using while in port. I know the ship will hold them until we are in port but my question How would I package them? I dont want just hand over the poles loose. Thank you!

FSHLOT Posted September 3, 2019 #3 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Maybe some pvc pipe with a screw cap on it, or they do sell fishing pole tubes. Good luck and tight lines....😀 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruiser_1977 Posted September 3, 2019 #4 Share Posted September 3, 2019 (edited) Are you flying or driving to port? This is a case they sell on Amazon that a friend of mine uses when flying...Plano Airliner Telescopic Rod Case He also said this one is good and less expensive.

CC Rider 69 Posted September 3, 2019 #5 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Don't fish anymore, but I'd check the license requirements in the various ports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCC retired Posted September 3, 2019 #6 Share Posted September 3, 2019 (edited) Depending on the length there are adjustable rod carriers where you purchase your rods and tackle. A piece PVC tube is another way. If they are 3 piece Travel Rods , no problem at all . Edited September 3, 2019 by MCC retired Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haveuseen1 Posted September 3, 2019 #7 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Buy a rod tube. Best way to go and not expensive. Pack the reel or reels in your luggage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VentureMan_2000 Posted September 3, 2019 #8 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Buy a swim noodle... fits right over the pole... and it's about an inch of protection. Works great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coevan Posted September 3, 2019 #9 Share Posted September 3, 2019 yes, any tackle shop will have rod tubes. I carry a 6' telescoping rod, spinner and a few lures with 10lb test. As to licensing, I have sailed the Caribbean and most licenses apply to boats, not shore fishing. St.Thomas has no fishing license option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lottacruises Posted September 3, 2019 #10 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Pvc is a good cheap choice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
