An improved fishing rod protector that is to be used on a two piece fishing rod with equal or unequal fishing rod section lengths, with or without a fishing reel attached. The invention is comprised of two cylinders, each open on one end and closed on the other. The cylinders are attached to each other by means of an elastic cord routed through the hollows of each cylinder and connected at the rear of each cylinder. The two piece fishing rod sections are arranged, then closely grouped and inserted into the hollows of the cylinders. The elastic cord is stretched and then returned to its undisturbed length, thus holding the two cylinders in place. A fishing reel can be attached to the rod and the fishing line can be strung on the fishing rod guides without affecting the invention. A portion of the fishing rod is exposed for viewing. When not in use, the invention stores conveniently one cylinder inside the other.

An improved fishing rod protector comprising; in combination: a first hollow cylindrical elongated member having an outer and inner surface, a open end, a closed end with two holes through the closed end, and threaded on the outer surface near the closed end; a second hollow cylindrical elongated member, having an outer and inner surface, a open end, a closed end with two holes through the closed end, and threaded on the inner surface at the open end, four holes aligned along the length and passing through the diameter of the cylindrical member in sets of two, a inner diameter larger than an outer diameter of the first hollow cylindrical member sufficient to mate with a first hollow cylinder member by clearance fit; a post and nut assembled with the second hollow cylindrical elongated member through one of said two sets of holes; an elastic cord connecting the first hollow cylindrical elongated member with the second hollow cylindrical member by routing the ends of the elastic cord through the holes in the closed end of the second hollow cylindrical elongated member by starting at the outer surface thereof passing through to the inner surface thereof, then traveling through the second hollow cylindrical elongated member and exiting at the open end, then passing through the inner surface of the first hollow cylindrical elongated member and exiting through the holes therein and arriving at the outer surface of the closed end of the first hollow cylindrical member where the two ends of the elastic cord are joined in a knot; a first cap secured by interference fit to the outer surface of the closed end of the first hollow cylindrical elongated member; a second cap secured by interference fit to the outer surface of the closed end of the second hollow cylindrical elongated member.
