Get yourself a telescoping spinning rod and put a spinning reel on it-you'll be a lot happier.

Reminds me of the pocket fisherman that came out in the 80's.

I'm sure there are some on here that remember that. And how about the telescoping rod that had the open face reel attached to it? Man, what will people come up with next.

of course, the prototype of the instant fisherman "had a few kinks" that had to be worked out....

I have one and they are fine. I like the fact you can make it into different action rods.
