Travel Fishing Pole

The Fiblink 4-Piece Spinning Rod is a popular travel fishing pole that combines the strength and durability of graphite and the portability of a packable spinning rod.

This 4-piece travel rod is designed so it can easily be to put together for a variety of angling situations. The strong solid carbon fiber construction is also very light , so on camping and backpacking trips the extra weight is minimal. 

Fiblink added a soft cork handle, strong and lightweight guides with stainless steel frames and ceramic inserts and a protective bag for storing the travel fishing pole.

The length of each piece of the 6'6'' rod is 21.7 inches, and the length of each piece of the 7' rod is 23.6 inches. Line recommendations seem to fall between 6-15# test. There are both a Spinning and Baitcasting model available.

While researching the Fiblink 4 Piece Medium Travel Spinning Rod I found most purchasers gave this travel rod a 4-5 star rating. One review questioned the assembly points, but the other buyers seemed to have no problem using the rod on the water.

Take Along A Collapsible Fishing Rod

If packing your fishing gear presents a problem when you are traveling, take along a collapsible fishing rod.
There are a number of choices , but my favorite is a telescoping spinning rod. They come in different lengths and depending on the type of fishing you do, they range from ultralight to medium in most models.

Collapsible Fishing Rod

The Eagle Claw Pack-It Spin Combo Telescopic Rod is a good example of a collapsible fishing outfit that doesn't take up a lot of room.  

Here are a few Pros about the Eagle Claw Pack-It:

• The medium action makes it good in Freshwater and Saltwater situations.
• The Eva Foam handle gives a comfortable grip fish after fish.
• Durable glass construction makes these rods perfect for the hiking and other outdoor activities.
• Aggressive actions in a small package can make a routine trip an adventure.

Spin Combo Model features a lightweght aluminum reel with quick folding handle and is already spooled with line.

Cons: 

• Some of the reviews I read said the rod was weak. That being said, I have found most collapsible fishing rods to have a very different action than you would expect from a 1 or 2 piece standard rod. But, if handled correctly, they can be a nice addition to your fishing arsenal, especially as a travel spinning rod.

• The pre-spooled line was another sore point with some owners, so for the low cost of monofilament, you might want to re-spool the reel before using the combo.

A Travel Spinning Rod Is a Great Companion

Travel Spinning Rod | Daiwa Mini System Travel Spinning Rod

One of my favorite gifts from my wife is a travel fishing rod that she gave me when I started to travel for my job. Knowing I couldn't add my standard fishing rods to my luggage, she gave me a Daiwa Mini System with a hard case that lets me get away from the rat race for awhile.

I have found the Daiwa 4.5-foot, five-piece ultralight rod and reel combo to be very durable and the MS-S500T reel with ball bearing drive is both fast and smooth when trying to land a fish. Obviously this travel spinning rod was designed for anglers on the move because the compact tackle setup comes in its own hard case, and is ideal for stowing in luggage, backpacking, or keeping under a car seat.
