   The travel pack came with all that was advertised; convertable pole, 2 reels. The spinning reel was nice and smooth. Never tried the fly reel.
   
   Pole is very , very light weight. It lasted about 4 days. On the 5th day it snapped. Easily repaired. I was using 2oz spoon. Probably shouid have used 1oz and under. I bought two kits and will keep the second one just in case.

   This combo fly and spinning rod and reel is a great value for the money. The convenient container makes it easy to store the rod sections and two reels in one easily accessible location. The fly rod is too short and the spinning rod is too flexible (same rod), but when one considers that the same rod can be used for both applications, this is a fantastic deal. The fly reel is small, but easily holds a regular fly line (not included but easily purchased), and the spinning reel has a smooth retrieve and holds plenty of line (also not included) if you are using light test (4 to 6 pound test) line. Overall, this is a great deal for those just starting to fish, or those who want quick access to both a fly and spinning rod and reel with great travel convenience.

   This is an amazing product ! Takes very little space, can be reverted to fly rod, excellent !

   Only minus is length of the rod, which could benefit of another 2 segments.

   This package never leaves my car, and is always “ready to go”, so when I see a nice river and have 30 mins, i take any opportunity !

   Shipping was prompt. Product quality and packaging matched the representation of such. Bag and product packaging is handy. Wish both reels came with line

   Seems like a good deal except you need to get fly line and “normal” line, a leader and backing. You can get a “ready to fish” kit for about 100 bucks and maybe it won’t BREAK THE TIP OFF WHILE YOU ARE SPOOLING LINE ONTO IT!!! This pole is amazingly weak. Would rate it at -1 star as well.
