PLUSINNO Fishing Rod and Reel Combos Carbon Fiber Telescopic Fishing Pole with Reel Combo Sea Saltwater Freshwater Kit Fishing Rod Kit

My son was very pleased with this collapsible fishing rod for Christmas! He was impressed with the weight and quality of the reel, as well as the length of the rod once extended. It will fit nicely in his fishing bag retracted while exploring new spots on foot to catch fish. Its compact size is great for carrying anywhere and it looks like a regular pole fully extended. It's quite sturdy. We're both pleased with this purchase.

Excellent Quality! Works great! Easy to use and very durable. Great for camping, fishing & traveling. Easy to store. Would buy again.

I received it as a gift, it quickly became my go to rod. It's easy to collapse and carry. It has great feel and response for setting hooks after bites. The folding handle is great for added compact design and easy to carry. Works great for Crappie and Bass. If the bail didn't sometimes spring too early when casting id score it a 5 for price and quality. That is my only gripe. Will recommend to not be too rough when collapsing because the tip is awful thin and could snap.

I’m a pretty novice angler, so all I was looking for was a rod that I could throw in my trunk without being worried about it breaking. This has surpassed all my expectations, it’s smooth, super easy to whip out and put away, and it makes it a quick and easy breeze to throw some bait on and cast during my lunch breaks! It was so handy I ended up buying a second one so my coworker could join me. Highly recommend for normal freshwater fishing use. (Most I’ve used on this is 12lb line and have had zero issue) UPDATE: after buying my 3rd rod (for more friends to use) I have discovered one singular issue with this rod: the nut that holds the reel handle on has a tendency to loosen over time, and in the time I’ve fished with these rods, the handle has fallen into the lake twice. (These were both 5 bucks a piece to replace- so this was not much of a problem) HOWEVER- if you are using this rod- make sure to occasionally check on the nut and give it a twist.

I am not a pro fisherman but I learned fishing with my Dad and I've caught plenty. As a rod and reel I this is a nice rod, it's got a good feel in the hand, it's closer to an ultra light but not quite ultra, like micro sub 6 foot pole with 1oz weight casting limit The reason I chose it is obviously the telescoping abity and this is absolutely an amazing marvel of technology, I feel blessed to have it really. It's simple, seems like it would last if taken care of and cleaned, and putting it together and back was quick and kinda mesmerizing. It gets so small it's like a wand, a foot long stick, and the reel of course, which I kept both of their boxes. If their is a caveat, maybe the rings seem susceptible to damage if the rod sack is not kept safe or in the box.

These were sturdy and functional. They aren’t the best poles in the world, but they’re pretty good for the price. They also come with some starter bait and line. Got these for a camping trip with my boys and they had a great time using them.

I am retired and occasionally go fishing. Not so much to catch fish, but to get a little exercise as the doctor recommends, and, to be outside in beautiful Virginia. I thought these would be a great alternative to have in my truck on the occasion I saw a good fishing hole. Because of my disability I can't drive long distances and so I have to stop pretty regularly to keep my knees from locking up. What a way to do that: Fishing for a little while. Well, to these poles and reels. I got them, put one of them together, took it apart, bagged it back up and sent it back. The quality seemed Ok, the truth is in the fishing, but I didn't like the way they extend and retract. Like a two-piece rod, these have 6ish miniature rods you have to pull out, line up and hope you have them snug. Then, when you are done, you have a length of line you have to keep from getting tangled as you struggle to get them loose without breaking the small ends of the rod. Just too much hassle, too much chance for breaking it or tangling line or not getting them set right. The reel seems Ok.. but never tested. Very compact and would be a great product with some engineering adjustments. Like being able to lock the rod sections in place after extending, small grooves/guides to keep the pole section from spinning around and tangling line. Just not for me. I will just carry around my 2-piece ugly stick and a few lures. BTW. the lures (untested) looked Ok. the plastic bait looked pretty cheap.. so don't count on the tackle being great, get your own
