Matrix Horizon Pro XL Rigid Holdall

The Matrix Horizon Pro XL Rigid Holdall is the ultimate high-capacity luggage solution engineered specifically for serious match anglers who need to carry a complete pole package along with pre-rigged feeder and float rods in a single, tubeless system. Built around a full rigid PE Board outer case, it eliminates the need for bulky plastic shipping tubes, providing total structural protection against crushed carbon sections, broken guides, and impact damage during transit.

Featuring three expansive main compartments with internal fixing straps, it safely isolates poles, extensions, top kits, and ready-made rods without friction or movement. Constructed from a heavy-duty, waterproof PVC-coated fabric, the holdall is fully wipeable and built to withstand harsh weather and muddy bankside conditions. The setup is completed with a long front exterior pocket for landing net handles, measuring sticks, or brollies, oversized metal zip pullers, dual neoprene grab handles, and a heavily padded shoulder strap for comfortable carrying.

Pro Tip

Because the rigid PE board shell offers total crush protection, you can eliminate plastic protective tubes entirely to save weight and space. Pack your main pole sections and margin poles in one compartment, your elasticated top kits (in hard cases) in the second, and two key ready-rigged rods in the third. Wrap neoprene rod straps around your ready-rods to keep line and reel handles completely secure inside the padded compartment.

Ideal Applications & Use Cases

Tubeless Match Pole & Rod Transport: Essential for match anglers wanting to streamline luggage by carrying a 13m–16m pole, spare top kits, and feeder rods without heavy plastic tubes.
All-Weather Festival & Open Competition Fishing: Tough PVC-coated exterior protects thousands of pounds worth of carbon tackle from downpours, mud, and groundbait splatter.
Barrow & Vehicle Loading Protection: The rigid outer shell ensures your expensive pole sections and ready-made rods won’t flex or break when stacked under heavy seatboxes, barrow wheelers, or packed tightly in transit.
