Quick FAQ's
Q: What's new in v3.0?
A: v3.0 of the CRC System incorporates a completely redesigned main housing and door seal, incorporating the finger pull into the lid. We've also added new colors, improved joint stiffness, and upgraded hardware materials for better performance in salt environments.

Q: Can I mount this upside down?
A: The CRC System is not designed to be mounted upside down as this eliminates the benefits of the Reels-Up design.

Q: How long does it take to install?
A: The CRC System installs in just a few minutes. It's the fastest installation available on the market today.

Q: Does it lock?
A: Yes, the reel compartment has a push button, locking latch and the mounting clamps use custom security nuts or our optional Lock Body Clamp Kit upgrade.

Q: How long of a fly rod will it hold?
A: 10'4"

Q: How big of a reel will it hold?
A: Up to a 4.5" arbor diameter.

Q: What size (weight) rod will it fit?
A: Measure your largest stripping guide on your rod. The CRC System has a 1.6" diameter (40mm) opening (largest fly rod carrier opening on the market). Usually rods over 8wt require measuring to ensure fit.

Q: What if I want to carry more than 2 rods?
A: We have a 2-pack available for that!

Q: Can I take the CRC System through a car wash?
A: NO. Do not bring your CRC System through automated car wash systems. As with most roof racks and rack accessories, the mechanical elements of the car wash can become entangled and damage your CRC System, your vehicle, and the carwash itself.

notable changes

As a point of reference, there is about a three (four?) year separation between my first and second CRC purchase. The first notable change that I noticed was the placement of the entry location for the clamping hardware. My original CRC had the entry locations oriented toward the front of the rod carrier. As shown in the attached image, the entry location is now towards the rear and the slot nearly reaches the reel box. This change does not materially effect my situation. However I can see where the change could make a difference for someone else.
Another notable change involves the door seals. The older version simply has two edges which overlap each other. The newer version uses two outer and one inner edge to create a tighter seal. I would expect this newer design to be better at keeping the water and grime out.
Thanks Trxstle, keep up the good work.

Quality and Service

I couldn’t be more pleased
Really liked the hustle the team put into getting my system to me
Already been on the water with my CRC double rod carrier and not a single issue
Took my truck down a tough washboard road and my fly rods were clean and un damaged
I’m a believer in Morgan and the Trxstle and planning a trip from CA to MT next year

Need a Longer Rod Carrier?

We've go you covered. Introducing the new Euro Fly Rod edition of the CRC System v3.0, with 11'6" rod length capacity.

Redesigned Housing & Hatch

The main housing has been overhauled with a new and improved 360° double baffle seal, and rigid, reinforced hatch opening that provides even greater security and strength.

New Metal - New Colors

We invested in all new extrusion tooling and upgraded the aluminum telescopic sections of CRC v3.0 to be more rigid and have a tighter fit. This is also the first time we will be offering the CRC System in the new blackout colorway. Both the silver and black versions feature Mil-Spec hard anodized finishes.

Integrated Hatch Handle

The redesigned hatch also includes a reinforced, integral finger pull. This upgrade eliminates the need for secondary parts and allows for easy, one handed operation. We also designed this feature to boost security by providing additional reinforcement to the latch area.

Best In Class Rod & Reel Protection

We build every CRC System here in Helena, MT with USA manufactured rod liners that suspend your fly rods inside the aluminum sections with soft walled HDPE plastic mounted on our proprietary spring system. And every CRC System comes standard with installed reel padding inside the main housing. Because you bought this to protect your gear, and we take that seriously.

Top Shelf Hardware

A product is only as good as the nuts and bolts that make it whole. We've used the best grades of stainless steel and weather resistant materials throughout the CRC System, including upgraded hatch springs for a snappy feel and a polished finish on the telescopic stop buttons.

Everything You Need

Every CRC System ships with all necessary hardware to mount it to your vehicle's rack right out of the box. Standard features include our patented, secure quick clamp mounts, full padding in the reel housing, and locking access to your rods. Looking to customize your carrier further? We've got you covered with great accessory options available like reel housing lights, shoulder straps, rod boot sleeves and more!

How It Opens

Extending the CRC System to its four different mounting lengths is fast and easy.

How It Closes

Collapsing the CRC System is just as easy as extending it and requires no tools.

Mounting Hardware

We call the CRC System mounting hardware quick clamps. You don't need tools, a team of people, or your entire afternoon to mount our fly rod carrier. Secure mounting is just seconds away.
