I bought this Shakespeare kit because I wanted to be able to fish when traveling. This rig is light weight, compact and has storage compartments for lures,spinners etc. Best of all the rod is telescopic and gives you medium action. Good price and good service. They now call me “Gone Fish-in”.

At first I was pleased with its packaging. I loved the case/mini tackle box. But when I first expanded the telescoping rod in my living room, the last (thinnest) piece got stuck in the out position. I fought with it by hand for 15 minutes before I used pliers and a hammer to get it to slide back into place. Now one of the eyeholes is detached, there are toolmarks on the rod, and the foam on the handle has a hole in it from where the rod came out the bottom. I haven’t even had a chance to use it yet and it has already been superglued.

Great combo for the money. It is lightweight but we caught a 17 inch fish in Delaware Bay! The case is a plus because you can carry your hooks and lures in it.

I bought this because I’m in the Navy and I move around a lot, so I needed something compact, yet still of good value.
It comes nicely packaged in a kit box. I found it surprising how small the box is, you wouldn’t suspect a 6’6″ pole out of the rod.
The quality of the rod seems sturdy and of decent quality. It’s lightweight and I don’t think you’d have to worry about rough handling. My boyfriend man handles anything he touches and my rod was still fine
yay!
I haven’t used it yet since I’m out at sea, but once I get back to land, you betcha I’ll be out on the water.

I got this rod for my husband for Father’s Day since we are going to stay at a cabin. He loves it! It’s surprising how compact it is and how long it gets. It seems sturdy too. The only thing was that we were sent a BLUE reel. Honestly, I prefer the blue so it was a nice surprise (our son’s pole is blue and he loves that they match)… but I imagine some people might expect and prefer the red so I thought it was worth mentioning. I’d still recommend it! It’s a very handsome blue.
