Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

The rod is very sensitive and gives excellent feel for what is happening in the water. A bonus is the hook keeper design on the back of the handle. Took this rod saltwater fishing for redfish and speckled trout. Matched it up with a kastking brutus 40...  Read More

I'm not sure if others reporting breaks received duds but this one is sleek, tough, and light. Didn't miss a beat working flawlessly. Would defiantly purchase this rod again.

It is light, we’ll balanced, good craftsmanship. These were the toughest two piece rods i have ever found. Super light but plenty strong.



Cons

The last one i bought just seemed a little sloppy. I have a 2 piece shakespeare microlite i bought from walmart for 20 bucks that outperformed this brand. There are a ton of reviews about how these rods have no durability. Very brittle rod.

I’m pretty bummed, but i guess that’s what i get for trying something new. What a shock and massive disappointment. Should've been the best setup in the house.

I chose this one because i know their quality is good, their customer service is great, and the price was really low.

Shipping


I took a photo of the rod and shipping box and shipping tube.


The way it was packed for shipping shows that kastking has pride in there products.

Packaging/appearance


Not only was the rod boxed air tight, the rod was placed in a rod holder cylinder with foam packaging which kinda makes it impo...  Read More

Competitiveness


I really like the kastking products and their business philosophy.


Just what i needed to fit in the car trunk where you can't carry a solid 1pcs rod.


Matched it up with a kastking brutus 4000 spinning reel.


My first kastking but it won't be my last!
