Creakycane is right. Don't look for reel cases. Order very short rod cases. I called and though the cases are 3 1/2 inches long, the length of 4 inch diameter tube is actually only 2 1/2 inches. With all the padding and the length of the zippered top, the case comes out to 3 1/2 inches long.

Go to the link in the top post and look at the rod cases on the bottom of the webpage. Then, order real short ones and you'll have reel cases in the diamter you require...... They are not specifically listed on the website as reel cases.

The inside bottom is some kind of plastic padding of some variety. I actually keep my reels in their bags inside thse protective cases, so I really didn't look at the inside that much....

Thanks Creakycane, I just ordered 5. What is the inner base that the reel sits on made of? She tried to describe it but I couldn't understand.

Both the red and black cases are lined with a lightweight fleece sloth over the PVC tube - it's not foam. the kind of thing camera cases are lines with - I think it will last for a long time......There is a small pocket in the top with zipper that is very small, big enough for drag parts, a label, small paperwork etc....

Those cases look very functional. I may get 4 or 5. What are the cases lined with? The open red case seems to have green foam which I am concerned will dry and start to "flake" off while the open black case with what I assume is a baby Hermann appears to have a cloth/ lining. Is there also a zipper pocket on top?

I've had a few custom multi-rod bags made by Harding. They're fast and they get it right. Highly recommended.

I think I have found some of the best functional reel cases I have ever seen. They are essesntially very short Harding cordure covered PVC rod cases, lined in a soft cloth, and padded at both ends. The ones I got are 4" diameter by 3 1/2" long and a perfect for Hardy Perfects, St Georges and vomHofe style reels. Can be custom made to any length, diameter and color....
