Lixada Fishing Rod Reel Combo Mini Pen Fishing Pole Kit Telescopic Fishing Rod Spinning Reel Combo Kit

I bought this for my husband. He is going on a mission trip to Peru. The item is small and can be taken easily without adding weight or being difficult due to size. The quality of this item is great! It is so small and compact that I was pleasantly surprised by the item when it's fully extended and put together. He hopes to catch food for the men while they are in the jungle. It will be a great addition to their trip.

I had fished with the product a couple times and it was pretty fun. I added my own grip to it and it was actually pretty solid. The big failure was tonight man. I was respooling this reel because I just got a brand new piscifun spooler and bam. It literally just snapped out of place and I wasn’t able to get it back to normal. It’s unfortunate because it was a cool little rod. My only other complaint is that you’re forced to use their reel. I wish the reel slot was able to fit 1000 size reels (the ultralight 1-6 lb reels) . The drag system on their stock reel is super bad man. It’s a 20 buck combo but it could be Infinitely better with a universal reel slot. It would’ve been a 5 star product if the reel literally didn’t just go sideways on me for no apparent reason. Now it could be a factory mistake but the review stands as is

I haven’t taken it fishing yet, but upon setting it up I came across a couple issues. The line that comes on it is a joke. Too heavy and stiff, and upon removing it I found that it is severely twisted and zero care is taken with how it is initially attached to the spool. It would really just be better if they didn’t include line at all. Also upon extending and stowing the rod a couple of times, the third guide from the tip came loose. Nothing that can’t be fixed with a couple drops of superglue. I bought this as an inexpensive novelty, and that is precisely what it is. I’m sure you can catch fish with it, and it’s pretty cool for what it is, but it is not a replacement for any of my arsenal of rods and reels. On par with the little Disney themed rods you pick up for kids at the local big box store. I’m happy with it being a neat little toy

At first it looks like a novelty fishing combo kit, that's compact but probably less than stellar when it comes to casting and fishing. The guides on the rod are quite small in diameter, so when I tried casting I was pleasantly surprised that it is actually a very nice little rod. I could easily and accurately cast an ultralight spinner nearly 50 feet, and it has plenty of strength to reel in decent sized fish. It would make a great compact rod for fishing small streams or keep handy in a boat or canoe. It also worked well for kids, due to it's shorter length and small scale reel. Definitely worth every penny.

Somethings you need to note before you buy this product. PROS: pole looks like the picture. The reel is not horrible you can use it. It extends to a good length. CONS: every eye on the pole was loose or coming off but if you are like me i keep a bottle of super glue in the house. I would highly advise you even if your eyes when you get the pole seem strong put a dab of super glue or whatever you have on them just to make your pole last. In conclusion buy with your expectations low but not too low it will work just needs a lil TLC. I will attach some pictures for yall.

I keep this in my car or backpack for spur of the moment fishing. The reel isn't very well made(mostly plastic) and I'd suggest immediately replacing the line. Don't fill it all the way or you'll get a rats nest. The pole is great, have caught 14" rainbows and it feels like pulling up a whale. Super light weight action and ideal for what I use it for. I wouldn't use for salt water.

I’m giving this 2 stars just for the poor quality control that comes out of them. I bought this to set up a bug out/hiking pack. It’s wonderful for a pack. It’s small size makes it easy to pack, and the reel folds up to make it even easier. But I didn’t even get to test mine in the water. It broke on me the third time I extended it out. If you want it, go ahead, but the quality control for this product is pretty bad. But the idea of this is fantastic. I replaced it with a retractable rod from Walmart for $25. Also, light weight, value for money, and for traveling....since Amazon or the Seller wants me to put that...

Great for backpacking super easy to set up and breaks down very small does not take much room in your backpack and adds more fun to any trip you go on! Pick one up you can't beat it for the price!

Really awesome product! Bought it for my husband who is an avid fisherman. He keeps it in his truck so he can fish little rivers or streams he comes across while our driving. Compact size, decent reel. Very happy with the product.

Husband loved this, I bought it for him for our trip to Western Canada. He was able to fish along the Bow rivers edge, packed up nicely for his carryon.

Wast of money!

One of the eyelets came unglued but I just superglued it back on. The reel is very nice for being so tiny and you can still get a fair amount of line on it. It folds down so small. Very pleased with purchase.

I wanted something a bit more on the lighter side and this fit the bill! Super light weight and I would suggest you use this as a back up rod or just as a fun experiment. Not practical to run as a serious set up. The reel seems to be okay. The line is garbage - get rid of it and throw some 2-6lbs mono line on it. Super important you spool this correctly otherwise it will lead to frustration and hassle. You have to watch this little 500 series spinning reel real closely other wise it could lead to some tangles if the line is not seated correctly around the spool. I am in the process of trying to mount a 500 to 1000 series real to this rod using some hose clamps. This should increase the functionality by a lot. It will reduce the portable aspect of it a bit. Build quality - Seems to be on the cheaper side but you get what you pay for. If you can find a really good little 500 series reel to mount to it with name brand value - It would end up much better. Overall, I enjoy this product. You have to know how to fish with these rods. light mono line with the drag set loose. Not too much yanking the rod around at high angles otherwise it could lead to the rod tip cracking. I would say, this is a fun little rod that if paired with a decent reel (mounting it yourself) could be a solid, positive experience. 8/10
