I have the 12 and 6 rod bag. They are good bags to carry your items. You will not get that many rods in there though. When the rods have the spinning reels attached, this takes up a lot of room. Depending on how many rods you want to carry - you will need to decide what bag to get. Best if you can - go to Cabelas and grab a few rods off the shelf and put them inside - this will give you an idea of what you can safely carry. Its plenty long, so your rods may move back/forth. You can always look to put a sleeve of some sort over your expensive rods or the ones that you don't want the tips to get damaged.
