Default Orvis Western 3 10' 7wt

Right the new rod turned up today, very pleased with it so far (though I've only given it a wiggle indoors maybe it'll get an outing Saturday) but it hasn't got a rod sock. Is this the case with all the Western 3's or is mine just missing? It's no biggie as there's an excellent rod sock maker on ebay and I can have one made for a fiver it's just that for the money I thought it would come supplied with one

The hard case it comes in should have 3 compatments , 1 for each rod section so you cant get a rod sock in the case with all the sections in it.

cheers Rob, I realise the compartment has 3 sections but I transport my rods from the car to fish (I use 2 rods) in their rod socks carried in a Titan rod sling. I find this more convenient than lugging 2 rod tubes about.
