Came up with an easy way to carry taped spey rods while driving from fishing site to fishing site. I have a pickup and shell and have a typical boat rack on top - I got the insulated soft tubes you put on piping and placed them over the bars - taped in place with duct tape - this protects the rod from hard contact with a steel tube. Got some of the heavy duty velcro straps and you can quickly lash down the rod with two straps and are ready to go - since I started religiously taping my rods (after one broke when I didn't) it is a pain to untape so rod will fit inside the truck bed
