Greetings,
I'm looking to purchase a rod sock for a 9' 4pc rod.
Any contacts would be much appreciated.
A possible option...
If your wife/girlfriend or someone you know has a sewing machine, they are
pretty easy to make.

I was the one that brought a sewing machine to my partnership. We have
since upgraded, but on my input the replacement has heavy material
capabilities. I make my own rod socks--preferred material is fiberglass
window screen sewn with sailmaking dacron. It makes a really light rod
sock, doesn't absorb water, and any moisture introduced dries out
easily. The semi-rigidity of it as sewn up makes a reasonable shock
absorber.
