Need a source for rod socks

I need socks for a couple of my fly rods. Anyone have a good source for these? Thanks, Ron

Re: Need a source for rod socks

There's an ebay seller that offers rod socks in all sorts of configurations.
I bought one, and it was very high quality. Just go to "Flyfishing", then
cases, and look for "Socks". The same guy makes very nice rod tubes.

The same vendor has a non-Ebay website - Custom Fly Rod Crafters Home Page

I find it a bit easier to navigate and find the alternatives (rod size, length, pieces, etc.).

Re: Need a source for rod socks

custom fly rod builders is a good source for many things and i've ordered some stuff from the guy. good reputation.

personally, i really like the grey rod socks/bags that pacific bay offers. order the one that is one length longer than any chart you may find. check their web site or call them for resellers/dealers:

for inexpensive rod socks/bags, try ron cilli (pronounced chilli) at landmark components. call him on the phone:
