Leland on the Fishpond Rodeo Rolling Duffel
The
31' Fishpond Rodeo Rolling Duffel, at a 7,872 cu. in. volume, is the second largest roller that Fishpond makes, and big enough for most people for an extended trip of any kind. Although Fishpond is known for the distinctive appearance and clever design features found in their luggage, the key word here is "rugged"; because Fishpond uses stronger materials, including zippers, and over-built construction to withstand the rigors you may have to encounter on your journey, whether it's New York , B.C. or Kenya. The acrylic in-line skate wheels are to-die-for, and of course, the compression molded bottom compartment separates and protects your gear. I don't think you'll find a better, or better looking, roller duffel than the
Fishpond Rodeo Rolling Duffel for all your far flung travels. If you do, let us know. I'm thinking Iceland for Atlantic Salmon.

Leland on Fishpond Products
Fly fishing takes us to some of the most rugged areas in the world. You need fly fishing gear bags that can handle the varied environmental conditions as well as luggage tough enough to get the rest of your stuff there, no matter how far "there" actually is. Look no further than Fishpond when it comes to the manufacturing of such ultra functional "tough love" fly fishing bags and luggage. Few manufacturers made a bigger splash when they landed in the fly fishing arena than Fishpond did. After less than 8 years in the industry they have become virtual front-runners in the design and manufacturing of gear bags and luggage produced with you, the angler, in mind.

Following Your Passion:
"For many people their passion for conservation derives from a hobby or pastime.
They have a direct connection—they can see a tangible benefit—to their support
of an organization or cause. They believe strongly in it.
At fishpond we believe in the power of purpose. We encourage you to engage in
a cause that directly impacts your heart. In conservation, as in every other facet
of life, none of us can do everything, but each of us can do something.

Carbon Neutral travel there’s a way for each of us to make a difference. So get

thinking, in deeds and in results. Conservation of our natural world is a shared
responsibility and we are proud fishpond is creating its own ripples in 2008.
We’re starting small—looking for ways to reduce our footprint on the environment
while continuing to provide the highest levels of quality and value in every fishpond
product. From an examination of our source materials to an analysis of our
business processes, we’re committed to being thorough and more cognizant of our
impact as a company.

closer to becoming a company that embodies our vision for what the fishpond
brand can be."
