GREAT FOR CRAMPED LOW CASTING AREAS

By David A. Youngblood
Years ago I bought the Shakespear kit that came with a reel and a Telescopic Pole that was 4 foot 6 inches. My Telescopic Pole got stuck in the extended position, and I broke it off which was a stupid thing to do because I could have put the big end under hot water, and poured ice water over the little end, and with some WD-40 spray I might have managed to free it up. I realize now that slinging the pole to its extended extension is what made my pole get stuck in the extended position. It is best to gently pull each segment to its extended position just as you would do when you gently push each segment back to the rod's compact position.

So remember this review that it is good to slightly lubricate the sections and keep them clean and do not sling the pole to its extended extension!

Compact Telescopic Poles are the only way to go, and this 4 feet and 6 inches pole is just the right size to cast in low tree line areas, or if you are under a small bridge where big poles just will not work.

Remember, DO NOT SLING TELESCOPIC POLES TO THEIR EXTENDED POSITION.

Great rod!

By Murffles
For the price, this rod works terrific. I normally use a 5' 6'' spinning rod, but can assure anyone that if you haven't used a bait casting rod before, especially one this length, 4' 6'', you will have no trouble adapting to using this one. There are no ceramic inserts in the eyes, so that may be a deal breaker for some, but I don't notice any difference. I have hooked a couple 3 pound bass, many crappie, a catfish and a foot plus gar with this rod and it has worked great.

Good deal.

By Mad Muck
This is a good deal for a light weight compact rod.Definitly not made for monster cats but great for lake shores and small streams.
