Does anyone have a good way to mount fishing gears onto a bicyle? I
don't mean to use the bicycle as a fishing platform; I mean to use it
to carry fishing gears to and from the fishing spot.

Since Sept-11, the local reservoir has closed most of the gates except
for two gates that are far away from the parking lot. This took me a
_long_ time to walk to the gate (and I am the type who can walk very
fast). I am thinking of putting all the fishing gears onto a bicycle,
and use the bicycle to reach the gate quickly.

I know I can use duct tape and bungee cords to tie everything onto the
bicycle. But I don't want to appear like a homeless or a refugee. I am
hoping that there is some way that I can mount everything onto the
bicycle very neatly.

The kind of fishing gears that I want to mount on the bicycle a
o One or two 6-ft fishing rods that are in
two-pieces construction.
o A folding light weight beach chair.

I can put everything else in a backpack.

I know I can use a telescopic (wrong word?) fishing rod that I can fit
inside the backpack. But I have a feeling that those fishing rods won't
feel right.

Any idea of how to mount the fishing gears onto a bicycle?

Thanks in advance.

Ages ago I just tied my two piece rod across the handle bars, and bungeed
my tackle box to the luggage rack on the back. I have also fished off my
motorcycle. I just strapped things to the luggage rack and pulled a
trailer
with the rest of my gear.

P.S. Who cares what anybody thinks about how you look. You are going
fishing!!!
