    Default PSA on Rod Shipping Tubes

    Sending an old Sage 2-piece back for a repair and don't have close proximity to fly shop of sorts to find a tube.
    No packing or shipping places had anything either.

    Went to Hobby Lobby in the fabric department and they had an old cardboard tube they get with fabric on sitting there, they said I can have it as they recycle them anyways.


    They don't mind giving them away at all, all you got to do is ask.

    Just figured I would share this as I was pretty pumped.

    Home Depot. PVC pipe.
    You can't buy happiness, but you can buy new fly fishing gear and that usually does the trick.

    Thanks for posting that tuna! It is difficult to find longer tubes for 2 piece rods and speys.
