Garbolino Squadra Competition Multizip Rigid Match-Feeder Holdall

Description

The Garbolino Squadra Competition Series Multizip Rigid Match-Feeder Holdall is a flagship storage solution for serious match anglers who need to transport a large array of ready-rigged rods safely. Designed to accommodate up to 8 rods and reels, it suits festival anglers or anyone who needs multiple setup options covered — various lengths of feeder and waggler rods, for example — without the risk of damage. Constructed from 100% waterproof heavy-duty PVC canvas, the holdall is semi-rigid and fully padded. Its standout feature is the staggered rod system, which uses dedicated internal heel block pockets to offset the positions of your reels. This prevents the reels from knocking against each other, keeping bail arms and line rollers perfectly aligned and protected during transit. - Capacity: Up to 8 Rods and Reels - Available Lengths: 1.65 m and 1.95 m (1.90 m variant) - Material: 100% Waterproof Heavy-Duty PVC - Protection: Semi-Rigid Shell / Padded Internal Partitions - Zips: Multi-zip System (Blue fabric/teeth) - Base: Reinforced Rigid Bottom - External Pocket: 150 x 12 x 5 cm (Umbrellas, Net Handles, etc.) - Straps: Woven Straps with 3D Garbolino Marking Multizip Access: Unlike single-zip bags, the Multizip system allows you to access specific compartments without exposing all your gear at once. Each secondary zip grants access to 2 compartments, while a main zip opens a central 3-compartment section. Anti-Collision Heel Blocks: Every internal compartment features a reinforced heel block pocket. By alternating which way the rods are inserted, you can stagger the reels so they never touch, providing total security for high-end Garbolino Altima or Trinity reels. Weatherproof Construction: The 100% waterproof PVC fabric ensures that your rods and reels stay bone-dry even in torrential rain. The reinforced rigid base allows the holdall to stand upright or be placed on damp, muddy banks without moisture seepage. XXL External Storage: The long external zip pocket (150cm) is sized to hold long landing net handles like the Strike Compact Telenet and match umbrellas, keeping your essential hardware in one place. Match Festivals: A bag for all seasons that can hold 10ft, 11ft and 12ft feeder rods along with 13ft wagglers, all rigged and ready to go. Protecting Long-Distance Gear: The 1.95m version is ideal for storing 2-piece distance feeder rods (like the Garbolino Distance Feeder range) that have a long closed length. Van and Car Transport: The semi-rigid shell provides a protective crush-proof layer when other heavy luggage or seat boxes are stacked near the holdall. Professional Organization: The padded partitions and staggered pockets allow for a logical layout, so you know exactly where each rod is located for a rapid setup. Gerry's Tip: To make the most of the staggered system, put your heaviest distance reels at the bottom of the holdall near the rigid base. This lowers the centre of gravity, making the holdall much more stable and comfortable when you're using the shoulder strap for a long walk to your peg.
