A protective case for large objects including a lock housing formed from a first section and a second section, both of the sections including at least one external subsection and at least one internal subsection configured to telescope inside the external subsection; and an extension lock comprising a lock housing and a compression lock, the lock housing including a screw-threaded channel, and the compression comprising at least one screw-threaded shaft with a compressive component on the interior end and a lock handle on the exterior end, the screw-threaded shaft configured to matingly engage with the screw-threaded channel of the lock housing; the compression lock configured to descend in the lock housing and compressingly lock the internal subsection in an extended position upon locking rotation of the compression lock; and the compression lock configure to ascend in the lock housing upon unlocking rotation of the cam latch.

A fly fishing system is provided comprised of a body that can receive a fly fishing reel. The body can be secured to a belt of a user when in use such that the reel is supported without the use of the user's hands. In addition, the system is comprised of a telescopic fly fishing rod that is hollow such that a fishing line can be fed through the rod without the need for guides/eyelets found on traditional fly fishing rods. When not in use, the rod can be collapsed and stored on the body.

A telescoping fishing rod protector includes at least a first tubular section that can be disposed inside of a second tubular section in a telescoping relationship. Each of the first and second tubular sections include an upper tube portion and a lower tube portion that couple together. The upper tube portion and the lower tube portion of the first tubular section are inserted into opposite ends of the upper tube portion of the second tubular section and coupled together. Then the lower tube portion of the second tubular section is coupled to the upper tube portion of the second tubular section, thereby capturing the first tubular section in the second tubular section. The first tubular section can be moved to adjust the overall length of the fishing rod protector to a desired length, and a fishing rod can then be inserted into the fishing rod protector.

A fishing rod holder includes a tubular member capable of removably holding a fishing rod thereon. The tubular member includes a first annular wall enclosing a longitudinally extending first cavity portion and a second annular wall enclosing a longitudinally extending second cavity portion. The second annular wall includes an internally-threaded end portion at one end. The fishing rod holder also includes a spike detachably affixable to the tubular member. The spike has a stored configuration and a deployed configuration. At least a portion of the spike is disposed in the second cavity portion when in the stored configuration.

A fishing rod holder includes a retainer box having front, rear, upper and lower portions defined by a frame comprised of a plurality of upright frame members, wherein the plurality of upright frame members includes front upright frame members and rear upright frame members. The rear upright frame members include support portions for abuttingly supporting the retainer box in a raised position above a support surface. A planar member on the lower portion of the retainer box and includes a plurality of receiving apertures configured to receive a first portion of a fishing rod therethrough. First and second brackets are disposed on opposite sides of the retainer box having inwardly opening channels disposed therealong. Multiple divider members are slidingly received in the channels of the first and second brackets for movement therealong, wherein adjacent divider members are configured to retain a second portion of the fishing rod therebetween.

A waist wearable holding device for pivotally coupling items to a user includes a panel that is substantially conformable to a hip of a user. A belt is coupled to the panel. The belt is configured to couple to the user with the belt positioned around a waist of the user and the panel positioned proximate to the hip of the user. A tube is pivotally coupled to the panel. The tube is open ended. The tube is configured to selectively insert tubular elements of items, such as a handle of a fishing rod and a pole of a fishing net. The item is pivotally coupled to the user, freeing hands of the user for other activities.
