Full details
The Avid RVS Single Sleeve (13ft) is designed for carp anglers seeking robust protection for their fishing rods during transport and storage. Its primary benefit is safeguarding your rod, especially the reel and guides, with a spacious design and durable construction. A potential consideration is its specific focus on single rod protection, meaning multiple sleeves are needed for a full setup. Key features include hardwearing 600D Oxford Fabric, a large reel section, heavy-duty zips, and integrated webbing grab handles.
