5.0 out of 5 stars Best Ultra Light Spin-Cast Pack Rod in my Collection, April 1, 2012
By 
Great White (Rocky Mountains) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Daiwa Mini System Minispin Ultralight Spinning Reel and Rod Combo in Hard Carry Case (Sports)
I am an avid Fly-Fisherman although not a purist, a backcountry guide, an outdoor writer ( You think?) as well and I simply LOVE this Ultra Light Combo! I spend an average of about 150-200 days a year on the water so the gear I choose must be the best. If too many fish are taken on flies or they in turn are not taking what I have to offer, I love the flexibility of having a great spin-cast reel on my pack. I bought mine from the Cherry Creek Orvis Store just about six years ago and it still functions like the day I purchased it. Unlike the review from "Ultralight-Hiker" on Amazon who "couldn't determine" what the weight class of "ultra-light" pole is and stated:

"I would never buy any product that advertises its self as ultralight and then does not list its weight. I have searched at least 20 sites trying to find the weight of the rod, the reel, and the case. If your going to advertise a product as ultralight it seems very poor judgement to have no information of the actual... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Best Pack Rod, December 16, 2009
By 
Fishing Jo (NE Minnesota) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Daiwa Mini System Minispin Ultralight Spinning Reel and Rod Combo in Hard Carry Case (Sports)
I've had one of Daiwa's pack rods for many years. At that time it came in a rectangular carrying case and the guides were thread wrapped - rather than taped. As a friend has had one with the "T" shaped case for 25 years, it must be somewhat older than that. Because it can be broken down to such a small size - it is an excellent rod for canoe portage fishing trips and for hiking in through the brush to the best trout streams. I have caught everything from 12 pound northern pike to brook trout and pan fish with this rod. In recent years my wife has purchased one as well. While it will never have the natural feel of a one piece rod, it does surprisingly well for coming in five pieces. My wife says it is my lucky rod, and after many years of "borrowing" it from me - I bought her one of her own. She loves to fish for bronze-backs and has already put fillets in the frying pan numerous times.

5.0 out of 5 stars MiniSpin Still a Great Buy, September 26, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Daiwa Mini System Minispin Ultralight Spinning Reel and Rod Combo in Hard Carry Case (Sports)
I have had one of these for over thirty years. I bought this one for my son. The MiniSpin is still an excellent way to take a high quality fishing combo wherever you go. It is not the rig for chasing huge fish, but I have caught pike on mine, and my son caught a four pound bass with his the first weekend he used it. This is a serious light spinning outfit. I recommend getting a second spool and filling one spool with four pound line and one with six. The four pound line works great with this rod and reel for things like crappies and smallmouth bass. Much more fun than just hauling them out of the water with a stiff rod and ten or twelve pound line. Six pound gives better results where there are weeds or bottom obstructions - you don't lose so much terminal tackle. The plastic latches on the case will wear with time, so I use a large elastic band to hold them closed. I highly recommend this package.

Amazon.com

See and hear the strike with the Zebco Hawg Seeker fishing rod and reel combo. The Hawg Seeker is equipped with revolutionary BiteAlert technology, which allows fishermen to see and hear a bite even on the darkest of nights. The technology gives you an extra advantage on the water, so you can reel in your catch on a moment's notice.

The 7-foot, medium-heavy rod, meanwhile, features two-piece Z-Glass construction.

About Zebco
Watchmaker, barber, and inventor R.D. Hull founded Zebco in Tulsa, Oklahoma, in 1949, in conjunction with the Zero Hour Bomb Company. The latter company, which manufactured electric time bombs designed to fracture oil wells, was looking to expand beyond its initial product and its expiring patent. Zebco's maiden reel was called the Standard, and was soon to be joined by the Model 22 in 1953. The Model 11 and Model 33 followed, helping popularize the notion of landing larger fish with lighter tackle. Dozens of products and patents later, Zebco still pays tribute to the legacy of R.D. Hull with every rod and reel the company produces. The W.C. Bradley Company purchased Zebco in 2001, but the company headquarters remains in Tulsa.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great combo for channels, June 20, 2010
By 
Catfish man (Grand Rapids, MI) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Zebco HAWG SEEKER/702MH WithBITE ALERT SC Fishing Rod and Reel Combo (Sports)
I have two of these and they work great for channel catfish. I have not used them for large blues or caught a flathead on one, but for large channels they hold up nicely. The bait alarm seems gimicky but properly adjusted it has alerted to me to many fish when my back is turned, I'm snelling a hook and not watching, or down the bank putting a fish on the stringer. To make the spincast bait alarm work correctly you have to point the rod tip toward the water so the rod holder needs to be the right kind, not a verticle one. Bass Pro sells a nice bank rod holder that works well with these combos. In 3 years I have had to replace the batteries once on one of the reels (very easy to do), and of course the line should be changed out at least once a year. This is a good combo for beginners and serious fishermen alike, it should not let you down.

got this last week and wow, i was impressed! its hard to judge on the net, but i dont have a local bass pro near me, so i chanced it and im glad i did! the only thing is the batteries were dead in it on arrival, but its only a few bucks to replace it. also the end piece (the half not shown) is yellow. like bright fluorescent yellow lol it was a shock when i opened it, it didnt bother me but i thought it should be mentioned.

This review is from: Okuma VS-605-20 Voyager Spinning Travel Kit (Sports)
I purchased this rod/reel combo for the convenience of having an outfit that would fit inside my checked baggage when I travel on airlines. The initial performance was good; I used it to catch a dozen or so rainbow trout while fishing in the Donner Lake region of California. The padded bag survived the trip quite well, and storage is more than adequate. The only flaw I encountered was some loosening of the rod sections after several casts. If you don't pause to push everything in tightly periodically, the rod tip (or even the whole rod) will separate and get flung into the lake with your lure.

This review is from: Okuma VS-605-20 Voyager Spinning Travel Kit (Sports)
I recently purchased a Okuma rod and reel travel pack. I used it a couple of times to make sure it worked ok before my trip. It is a very nice combo that casts easily and has a light enough action that I enjoyed using it to catch small panfish. The whole pack is a bit bulky but worth the space to make sure your rod and reel get to your destination in good shape.

3.0 out of 5 stars No quick assembly, July 9, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Okuma VS-605-20 Voyager Spinning Travel Kit (Sports)
Don't plan on whipping this out of the case in a hurry and dipping your hook in the water. It takes some setup and tear-down time, as it does not easily come apart to fit in the case with the reel attached and the line strung. Look somewhere else if you want a quick solution for back country fishing where compact is key. To its credit, the rod has nice action and the reel seems well built. Comes with no line and only one spool. It is not telescopic.
