I normally have 4-6 in my Jeep, unless the woman makes me take them out. I have my two normal rods I use plus one for my kid, then I have my fly rod plus the kids fly rod. Usually 6, right now there are only 4 though.

 

I usually have four spinning rods with me - heavy, medium, light, and ultra light; with line weights 20 lb., 14 lb., 8 lb., and 4 lb. respectively plus spare spools with other weights to go up or down from there. Not to mention about 75 lb. of tackle distributed amongst 3 or 4 tackle boxes at any given time. Plus drinking water, a couple of MRE's, a first aid box and a snakebite kit.

That's not nearly enough stuff, I realize, but it's all the jump seat area behind the front seat of my truck will hold.

I have most of my rods in my boat. Though I almost always keep a couple in my car. Right now I have 4.

In the wintertime that number will jump to about 8. Ice rods take up so much less space!

A couple of years ago I counted all my rod/reel combos. Counting winter and summer equipment I had 23 complete combinations. Now I am down to 17. I expect to actually drop that a couple more and eliminate some of my lower quality stuff.

 

i dont even want to think of my total what with fresh and salwater gear i might hurt my self

 

2 spinning rods (my girlfriends & mine, different weights. i usually use hers)
1 fly rod

 

I have a fly rod, 2 spinning rods (an ultralight and a medium) and a baitcaster at all times in my car. 8)

 

I have 6 spinning rods, one fly rod, and 4 catfish rods in my little car, not to mention about 50 lbs in tackle and other equipment. I'm glad my car has a back seat! :-\

 

5 complete rods, 40 pounds of fishing gear...3 life vests incase I stop for my boat in storage, and my fish finder and net...have to be ready to go at a moments notice...oh and I still have 6 dozen leeches still in good shape...they have a bunch of fall walleyes names on them...

 

i have 4 rods. all a combanation of light and medium action rods with different lenghts and line size i also carry a spare spool for each one and all my tackle. my in-laws leave 1/4 mile from the pourde so i try to sneek away when we are out there all day on the weekends

 

1x 2 pc spinning rod, lives on truck, rigged and ready
1 x 4 pc spinning rod, lives at home, ready to go on bike for quick fix when wife is out with car.
1 x 2 pc fly rod, lives at shop, back-up rod
1x 4 pc fly rod, lives at shop, main fly rod

 

4 pc five weight and a two piece medium action spinning rod 8-10 lb test live in my explorer. A small box of flies, a box of larger bass flies, and two clear lockable trays with assorted lures and soft palstics and I'm pretty much ready for anything in Colorado short of those Volkscatfish in Pueblo. I've had lots of gear and I've had a little gear and i always come back to these two rods pretty much no matter what.

 

I carry (2) spinning rods and the tackle bag. Always good to go.

 

i always have 4 spinning rods with differrent line weights for different situations and my big tackle box

 

Maybe I'm wierd,but I dont have any. 0. Nada.Zilch.I keep them and all tackle in my house when I'm not fishing.When I go,I usually have 3 or 4.Ice fishing I usually caryy 5.

 

Im the same way as slayer on this one . If I carried my fishing poles all the time I would never get anywhere . It's hard on your line being in the heat of a car and I would be afraid someone would get away with all my gear .

 

I have my 4, the wifes 2, and 3 for the kids, and One of my 3
Tackle boxs.

 

Put me down for zero, too. I've had my window smashed and CD player ripped right out of the dash before, so I'll be damned if I'm going to let some punks get a hold of my fishing gear.

I also agree with FishingGuitars. The extreme temperature changes inside a locked vehicle can't be good for the line, metal, plastic, or internal lubricants.

 

none.

Thats right none.

The boat likes it that way.

Shhhhh,,,

besides the ones in the house...

 

i never really thought about the heat. i keep mine in the trunk but i beleive i will have to take a look at them now.

 

direct sunlight i think is the only thing bad for your string

the warehouse where they store it be for it si shiped is not heated or cooled in the summer or winter

and the trucks they haul it in and it sits in for a while is not heated or cooled so what would be the difference then my truck or my car as long as the direct sun is on them
