Pros & Cons
Pros
Excellent customer service. Honesty super impressed, feels very durable and sturdy and not like a flimsy peice of junk. Slide together nice and feels solid when doing so.
Fit and finish of this rod is exceptional. The hardware is of above average quality. The rod has great sensitivity.
Portable case is very well designed. Always in my luggage. Packed in checked baggage with no issue. Food travel case as well.
Caught a 38” muskie on my spinning rod. Handled some decent size trigger fish and yellowtail snapper very well. Probably, adding some spacer underneath the reel will save the nut.
Cons
Rod casts nicely but unfortunately the rod line rating needs to be revised. The other segments need to be sanded in order to fit.
Highlights
Quality
Honesty super impressed, feels very durable and sturdy and not like a flimsy peice of junk.
Light - easy to cast - strong - 4 pieces fits perfectly - feeling is sweet !
Once assembled it feels like a one piece rod.
This was only after 4 days of use.
Price
All this for a very affordable price.
Great value for the price, pairs well with most of my heavier reels; curado and tatula and has pretty decent sensitivity.
I decided to try a new rod from 6ft to 9 ft and to spend 70 $ considering i paid a bit less for everything all together .
Shipping
Also, it arrived well ahead of the estimated date which was a bonus.
Contacted them as well after 6 days to try to obtain a tracking number for the shipment but received no response.
I received a new rod delivered within 2 days.
I haven't had a chance to use it but it came quickly and in perfect condition.
Packaging/appearance
Packed in checked baggage with no issue.
Competitiveness
After pricing similar travel rods that cost 3 times what this one does, i took the plunge and ordered this one.

Breaks down into 4 shorter pieces and therefore fits nicely in the protective travel tube

The rod is so well thought of in the design except had a problem with the rear reel attachment near the handle it was too shallow and wouldnt hold my reel in place

So i had 6 ft 2 piece nothing special rod that had elastic connection on middle and end so you can attach the rod together to compact it a bit without using rubber bands and what not
