My new gig takes me on the road with a Pelican case full of gear. Checked bag fees make it hard to swing packing extra and carrying on a rod tube is questionable some days.
Still the rule is a rod always goes on the road, even if you don’t know if you can break it out, even when doing so calls for improvisation. That rod is now impervious to destruction.

Well of course it’s now impervious to destruction – you’re using duct tape! You can eject the Pelican case altogether if you like.
That’s painter’s tape. Duct tape is a different animal altogether. I might make a rod sock out of duct tape, though, that’s a good idea.
Innovative!
That is a sweet move. I might have to try it out. What size pelican are you rocking? That is genius.
I am on the cutting edge of many things.
It’s the IM2720 Storm. That’s a 7’6″ 6-weight strapped diagonally there.
Good rule. try this stuff

That’s some tape. I may have to compare it head to head with duct tape.
BTW, you tape like a retard.
I tape gud.
