Looking for a couple tubes for the rods listed below. Not really wanting to spend lots of money either. I'd be happy with nylon and/or aluminum tubes.

- 7' 3" 4pc single hand rod
- 9' 4pc single hand rod
- 11' 1" spey rod

Thanks!

This would work for at least the first two:

I've also got one of these, it isn't bad for the price:

Pick up in Verdi on your next trip to Truckee or Pyramid and save on shipping.

It's quite popular "Down Under" in Australia to easily make your own tubes using light gauge PVC (poly) pipe,with a fixed cap on one end and a screw cap on the other.There's different gauges of pipe so get the lightest one which is plenty strong enough..For my 4pc.9' rods I use a 30.5"x3.5" tube...this holds four rods top to tail in their socks,carefully wrapped.This setup has worked fine for the past ten years on a dozen trips to C.I.
