I used the "usual" rod covers out there and they were fine, but I hated getting the hooks untangled after the drive to the lake or after the boat ride. Then I found the EVOLVE Rod Sleeves. The hooks will not snag in the material, period! The adjustable draw string makes it to where it'll fit securely to any length rod. So, I began replacing the covers for all 25+ of my rods. These sleeves are the best thing for you Fishing Rod no matter how expensive your rods are. The materials and craftsmanship are of high quality. These can be considered a little expensive for a Rod cover, but when you're needing the peace of mind that your rods are protected, this is the only way to go! I will not use anything else.
