Any chance those lockers are on sale at the NE location?
I've been looking for a decent carry case for my rods. The price seems right to try these.
edit: Nevermind. I reread the post and realized the lockers are at cdntire.

I checked out the rod combos at CT today and they look decent. The rods are HT Ice Blues in light and medium actions. I have a light action one and I've been trying to find one all season with no luck, and I almost got this combo just for the rod. It's super sensitive and would be great for perch and light biting trout. The medium action looks to be on the lighter side as well...good for bigger trout and maybe small walleye? Reels are pretty much your standard issue 2 ball bearing ice reels...nothing fancy. Pre-loaded with line, but I'd replace it.
Overall, great combo for the price, especially if you're a trout/perch guy

the HT lockers are still a soft case and potential for crushed rods is still there. i've built a few of these and they work great. all your rods stay vertical and in place. even across many rough miles of ice and snow, throw the bucket in a milk crate into the sled behind a snow machine and everything arrives safe and ready to fish.

All my gear is in a big black tote that sits on a rack on the back of my quad
the lockers just keep them together and untangled soft sider is ok tote keeps them from getting crushed
