the wife and i will be flying to montana in aug. to fish . ( christmas gift from wife ) i am wondering if anyone has taken gear on board lately ? i was going to take a gear bag with rod (in holder ),and put it at my feet + a carry on in the overhead . but after reading the new regs. ( says MAY not be allowed ) i am not enthused about putting rod and reel etc in baggage check . has anyone flown with gear recently ? thank you !! keith
