Product Information
Full details
The Daiwa N'ZON Rod Holdall - 196cm is designed for anglers who need to transport multiple 'rod ready' setups securely and efficiently. Its key benefit is the padded, twin-compartment design offering excellent protection and easy access. A potential caveat is that while it can accommodate four rods, maximizing capacity may require careful 'topping and tailing'. This holdall features full two-way zip access, internal padded dividers, Velcro straps for securing rods, and external pockets for accessories.

FAQs
What is the maximum number of rods this holdall can carry?
The holdall is designed to comfortably carry four rods in a 'rod ready' state. It's possible to fit more by 'topping and tailing' the rods, though this may impact protection.
Can I store my reels in the holdall?
Yes, this holdall is specifically designed to keep reels attached to the rods ('rod ready') and offers padding for their protection.
What are the dimensions of the holdall?
The product title specifies a length of 196cm. Internal dimensions will be slightly less to accommodate the padding and structure.
Is the holdall waterproof?
The materials used offer good water resistance, but it is not fully waterproof. It's advisable to dry the holdall after exposure to significant moisture.
What accessories can be stored in the external pocket?
The external pocket is ideal for a Tip Case, and there is a separate Velcro loop for securing items like a storm brolly or landing net handle.
How do I clean the rod holdall?
Clean the exterior and interior with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. Ensure it is completely dry before storing.
Does this holdall come in different sizes?
Yes, Daiwa offers N'ZON Rod Holdalls in various lengths, including 180cm and 145cm, to suit different rod types and user preferences.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to close.
Check for any fabric obstructions caught in the zipper. Apply a small amount of graphite lubricant (like from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based zipper lubricant to the teeth.
Velcro straps are losing their grip.
Clean the Velcro surfaces with a stiff brush to remove debris. For persistent issues, consider replacing the Velcro strips.
Water ingress despite external material.
Ensure all zippers are fully closed. While the material offers water resistance, prolonged exposure to heavy rain may lead to some dampness. Allow the holdall to dry completely after use.
Holdall feels too bulky when carrying.
Adjust the padded shoulder strap for optimal weight distribution. Ensure rods are packed efficiently to minimize internal shifting and bulk.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Offers excellent protection for multiple 'rod ready' fishing setups.
- Saves time at the fishing spot due to 'rod ready' configuration.
- Durable construction with ample padding throughout.
- Versatile carrying options suit different situations.
- Convenient storage for essential accessories like tip cases and brollies.
Cons
- May require 'topping and tailing' to fully maximize capacity for four rods.
- The 196cm length may be excessive for some vehicles or storage spaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Open the two-way zips to access the main compartments.
- Lay your 'rod ready' fishing rods inside each compartment, ensuring reels are positioned appropriately.
- Use the internal padded leaf to keep the two compartments separate.
- Secure each rod using the provided Velcro straps, ensuring they are firm but not overly tight.
- Utilize the external pocket for your Tip Case and the Velcro loop for a brolly or other accessories.
Compatibility:
This holdall is designed to accommodate most standard rod and reel combinations. The 196cm length is suitable for longer rods typically used in specimen, carp, and sea fishing. Ensure your rods, when assembled with reels, do not exceed the internal length of the compartments.
Care:
- Clean the exterior and interior with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Ensure the holdall is dry before storing to prevent mold or mildew.
- Check the zippers periodically and lubricate if necessary.
- Store in a dry, well-ventilated area.
