The Cabela’s Synch Fly Rod Reel Case (8’6″, 5wt, 4-piece) is a protective storage solution designed for fly fishing rods and reels, available through Cabela’s and Bass Pro Shops (which merged in 2017). Here’s what you need to know:

Key Features:
1. Compatibility:
– Designed for 4-piece fly rods up to 8’6″ in length (ideal for 5-weight rods).
– Fits most standard fly reels when attached to the rod.

2. Construction:
– Durable exterior (likely nylon or polyester) with padding to protect against impacts.
– Zippered closure for secure storage.
– Internal dividers or straps to keep rod sections and reels organized.

3. Portability:
– Compact when folded (due to 4-piece rod breakdown).
– May include a shoulder strap or handles for easy transport.

4. Color/Design:
– The “White River” label suggests it’s part of Cabela’s budget-friendly line (originally named after the White River brand).
– Typically comes in neutral colors (black/gray with Cabela’s/Bass Pro branding).

Where to Buy:
– Bass Pro Shops (in-store or online).
– Cabela’s (now under Bass Pro ownership).
– Check for availability on secondary markets (eBay, Amazon) if discontinued.

Alternatives:
If this model is unavailable, consider:
– Bass Pro/Cabela’s Prestige Case (similar design).
– Fishpond Dakota or Thunder Creek cases (higher-end).
– Orvis Safe Passage Case (reliable mid-range option).

Things to Verify:
1. Exact dimensions—ensure your rod/reel fit (some cases run snug).
