Default Backpack?

I am looking for a backpack that has the ability to hold a rod case and

With all the five or more piece rods available today, there is a
practically unlimited variety of packs available that will do the job.
Any recommendations you get here will tell you only what you now
already know and that whoever makes the recommendation is satisfied
with a particular pack for reasons that must be based on arbitrary and
highly idiosyncratic tastes. Your best bet is to rely on your own past
experience (if any) and to ferret out a brick and mortar store with a
large selection, and then try them out in the company of a
knowledgeable friend or (if such can be found) salesperson. Cabela's,
Gander Mountain, Bass Pro Shop, and REI, are all likely candidates if
you can get to any of them. There are many other smaller (and more
specialized) vendors.
