We took this rod out to use and on the very first fist we caught it broke. Hopefully Amazon accepts the return or we get a replacement.

I bought 2 of these to take on a fishing trip to Canada with my son (age 25). I had to order another one before we ever left because the reversible bottom piece was stepped and it would not stay screwed to the pole. Then the replacement pole broke on the very first fish we caught with it - about a 2 lb. pikeminnow. It was my son’s pole and we had to go buy him another one and I had to buy one for myself as well because I knew I couldn’t trust it. This was very disappointing to me because I have had a Trailmaster for over 30 years and have not had a single issue. I would still be using my original pole except I lost one of the pieces. I did not try to send them back to Eagle Claw for replacement or repair because they were so brand new, I will not buy another rod from Eagle Claw.

I have the 4 piece that is about 30 years old that is great. This packs up smaller for our backpacking trips. The action of this rod is perfect.

Came unusable straight from its box… of which was mutilated, although supposed to be “new in box”. This was very annoying and disappointing. Return process is a unusually complicated deal, and seemed postage returned would be charged.I looked forward to having a nice travel rod, darn. How could this problem be missed during quality control?

So trying out fly fishing for first time I recommend this rod. I fell in love with this type of fishing. However you get what you pay for. I broke the rod by miss use testing the flexibility the repaired it myself and broke again when snagged in tree. If you just use it and don't push it to crazy limits. I don't see it being a bad rod. Not a lifetime rod but good for getting into the fly world without breaking the bank. I say do it.Sincerely, the guy down stream.

I purchased this combo rod in 2016 for a 55 mile backpack trip and it held up wonderfully, no issues whatsoever. I used it once last year. This year I used it for a 40 mile backpack trip, and for the most part everything was fine. But on the last day of my trip I hooked maybe a 12inch trout that put up a little bit of a fight and the tip busted off!! I had read reviews about the tip being very delicate but I thought I'd give it a try. In 2016 we were catching 20-24inch trout and the rod was awesome! So I was super surprised when the tip snapped off when I hooked the 12 inch trout. Very disappointed in the pole. Its very flimsy and delicate!!

Je croyais que la canne était fait pour des moulinets standardJe crois que c'est une canne à pêché pour les moulinet pour pécher à la mouche donc je ne peu pas vraiment évaluer car je ne pêche pas à la moucheIl faut bien essayer de voir ce que l'on achète en ligne pas toujours facile car les descriptions ne sont pas toujours complete

What an amazing deal for a quality rod. I grew up spin fishing buy for last decade I am mostly a fly fisherman. But sometimes when I am up in the mountains at lakes or at reservoirs I like to pull out the spinning rod so I can get some far distance casts. And I do miss fishing mepps spinners sometimes, still a great way to fish. This rod gives me the best of both worlds while camping. I can spin or fly fish and it packs up small so for hiking. The biggest thing is the price. I own some expensive $700 fly rods but this rod performs just fine for what it is and so the value and is amazing and the rod looks great too.

Received this rod from Amazon the day before leaving on a 3 day fishing trip and was eager to try it out. As I am new to fly fishing, I was using it as a spinning rod. When we got to the first lake I immediately caught a couple of fish (1-2 lb trout) using a lure, but while landing the second the rod tip broke off at point where the last section attaches. My son suggested I continue to fish using the rest of the rod, but switching to bait (night crawlers) and quickly caught a third fish (but casting at this point was difficult). Eagle claw replaced the rod under warranty without issue within 2 weeks of receiving it. BOTTOM LINE: I am very satisfied with the rod and with the way the company honors the warranty.
