Default Airport Security and Travel Rods

When I went to Sun Valley last fall. I printed out all of the below documentation
and carried the TSA's number 1-866-289-9673. I was told by one of their
agents, "If you have a problem carrying it on, just give us a call and we will
talk to the screener".

The below info is from:
http://www.tsa.gov/public/interapp/e...orial_1188.xml

Fishing Rods / Poles - Fishing Rods are permitted as carry-on and checked
baggage. However, please check with your air carrier to confirm that it fits within
their size limitations for carry-on items. Ultimately, it is the carrier's decision as
to whether or not it can be transported as carry-on baggage.

Tackle Equipment - fishing equipment, including small hooks, should be placed
in your checked baggage. Some tackle equipment can be considered sharp and
dangerous.
