Rod transport at 70 mph - Advice Needed

We're far enough from our preferred lakes that we need to use the interstate for a portion of the trip. How are you guys securing your rigged rods for the wind at that speed. Specifically, how are your rods wrapped to keep things from coming loose and tearing off floats, et?

We are using tip saver rod holders for the long rods and laying the short rods on the lower level of the boat deck. Not worried about having a rod fly out of the boat, just tired of finding that something has unwrapped during transit.

Thanks,

Anthony

Velcro straps work wonders for me.

Have for years :)

As your line ages you will fine that a few will break. I just retie when I get to the lake. Needed to anyhow

I use little plastic hair clips from dollar store. Keeps line weight tight to the rod

Women's hair scrunchy.

Electronics shops have small bungee cords

Velcro rod straps

Thanks Gents!

I also use the hair clips in different sizes to clamp down the cork as well. I also use 1/4 inch line to tie around the handles at the Reel, and another towards the top about a 1/3 of the way down. 3 to 4 rods per bundle - there is a tie down on the side of the boat a Bungie takes all stress off the rods in transport

I never leave a rod exposed in a boat when I travel . seen to much go wrong with that program myself . just saying

I use Cabela's rod socks and Velcro wraps. Works great. best I've used yet.
