I use a North Face Base Camp duffel in XL to pack my clothes and all lures, hooks, line, terminals. Of course, this is checked luggage. They also make the bag in smaller versions (L, M, S). I carry-on my reels in a large Kelty backpack with other essentials. So, I only need 3 pieces of luggage to go anywhere in the world: the duffel, rod case, and carry-on Kelty backpack.

Sorry Brandon to correct you here when weight is paramount this bag is in fact 1360grams
Arnout Weber:
Hello,
At my last 2 trips i used a remowa suitcase. It is 6 kg heavy. it,s is a strong suitcase that does,t break open
like my last samsonite. when it was loaded it was 30kg that was in both times 7kg to heavy. i had to pay 100 euro,s
per flight for it. so that is quiet a lot of money.
So now i am thinking shall i buy a duffel back for next trip or just take a extra suitcase for the trip.
It will cost money anyway.
Best regards,
Arnout.

I use a lightweight suitacse Arnout and I un-roll my HPA lure roll and stand it up inside the case for extra stability. I will put my jigs a plastic tube in with my rods in a Nature Boys rod carrier. Reels in a rucksac that I take as carry on. When the airline is over zealous on weight I will put a few extra items in the pockets of a jacket(with large pockets) and then transfer to rucksac after security.
