1.0 out of 5 stars Do not purchase!, March 15, 2009

Do not waste your money on this product. This is probably the worst product I've ever purchased through amazon and its associated merchants. The workmanship is really crappy. Plastic handle. Plastic eyelets. Poorly glued. I used this pole on a trip to the bahamas recently. With the first strike, the pole itself cracked where the thickest part of the rod meets the handle. I managed to land the less than 1 lb reef fish, but the pole was rendered useless. Then upon collapsing the pole, the eyelets came unglued. What crap! This is worthy of zero stars! There are much better options for your money.

4.0 out of 5 stars Tough package for $15, August 9, 2009

I bought 2 of each these in 7'. 9'. 12' to take fishing in Costa Rica.

"Tough package for [...]is what I'd said about them.

Be very gentle extending and retracting these rods, the guides are very lightly glued on. Half the poles had the eyelets come unglued due to rough handling by our guides, but super glue fixed them right up.

The reel seats aren't very strong and the butt end of the rod is really short so they can pack down well. This makes fighting a big fish tougher, but the strenght and flexibility of these rods was impressive. We were using 10 lb spiderwire on the 7' rod and reel set up. This set up landed more than a dozen fish including a mackeral over three feet long and a 42 inch Dorado. The 12' with 30 lb line performed just as well.

Great buy your the money.

I bought 4 of these last year for an AK salmon trip and worked very well. (Two broke but had on very big fish and people using weren't fighting fish correctly - 1 guy broke a $100 rod.) Fit in backpack for plane and easy transport to fishin' holes!! Going again this year and taking another son and got 2 more. Excellent prompt shipping service from seller. Good bargain.
