Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Purchased so I could keep it in my car for those "Just in case" moments. Used it several times and have two general gripes that leave me wanting more.
1) the reel doesn't seem that great. I understand it isn't a $100, 10bb, graphite coated reel, but at the same time I have other inexpensive reels that are lighter, appear more durable, and actually lock when forward motion stops. It just feels sloppy. Did I mention the paint chips almost immediately... just annoying.
2) While I realize a multi-part rod will eventually come apart, this one seems to do it rather quickly. After every 4-5 casts I found myself adjusting one part of the rod or another.
Other than that the setup and breakdown times are short, and it is handy to have. I could probably just swap reels, but why should I have to. I just keep wondering if another $15 dollars would have given me more peace of mind.
