Abstract: A carrying case for one or two assembled fishing rods and reels which includes a pair of pouches of flexible material which are connected along an extended mid-seam with each pouch having oppositely oriented carrying handles and an opening through which the end of a rod and the reel is selectively received and which openings are closable around the rods by interengagable surface closures. The carrying case permits one or two rods and reels to be selectively carried or stored and yet the reels shielded from the weather and other environmental conditions without the necessity of removing the reels from the rods.
