For the plastic pipe you can cut a slot in for the reel or cut the last bit of the pipe in half.

an example I found. I don't cap the ends as I want my things to dry out quicker. and just use an elastic to hold the rod in.

I use built in Vac tubing as it is lighter than PVC pipe.
Good idea for sure but a little bulky for me as I usually have at least five rods in my boat and my rod storage compartment won't hold em. Good idea for transport. I would soft line the inside in some way
