Whether you're traveling across the country for business or driving through the countryside to visit a family member, it's always nice to have a rod and reel available for spur-of-the-moment fishing trips. Enter the Shakespeare Travel Mate telescoping combo kit, which packs easily into a suitcase or shoulder bag for transport. The Travel Mate comes with a telescoping 6-foot-6-inch medium-action rod, along with a 35-size spinning reel filled with 8-pound line. The rod and reel cast just like traditional rods, but collapse into a 15-inch footprint for storage in the handy Travel Mate hard-body case. The case also includes six built-in, adjustable storage compartments for your tackle, so you don't need to bring along a separate tackle box. And it couldn't be easier to carry or store the Travel Mate thanks to the removable shoulder strap and fold-down handle.
About Shakespeare Fishing Tackle
Founded in 1897 by William Shakespeare, Jr., an avid fisherman of 27 years, Shakespeare Fishing Tackle has been a revered name within the fishing business for more than a century. Among William's first inventions was the level-wind reel, which was designed to wind fishing line evenly back on the spool. Now common on most fishing reels, the level-wind reel was a revelation at the time, and helped propel Shakespeare into prominence in the early part of the 20th century. In the ensuing years, Shakespeare introduced such innovations as the Backlash brake, which prevented spools from backlashing; the glass fiber Wonderod; the pushbutton Wondercast spinning reel; the Ugly Stik tubular fishing rod; and the Synergy spincast reels. Shakespeare Fishing Tackle is headquartered in Columbia, South Carolina.

| 41 of 43 people found the following review helpful  Very usable rod and reel, By J. A. King (St. Louis, MO, US) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Shakespeare Medium Action Travel Mate Telescopic Kit Combo (6-Feet 6-Inch) (Sports) I recently sailed a 40 ft catamaran around the Florida Keys and wanted to do some occasional fishing.We took the dinghy out to the #18 red marker just south of the Boca Grande channel, tied off, chummed with some shrimp and began fishing. We had stripped off the flimsy looking mono that came with the reels and replaced with 8.b test Spider mono. We used a swivel to some 30lb test leader and no weight. We baited with whole shrimp hooked from the tail up through the body. Within 10 minutes we caught and landed 3 yellowtail jacks that were easily 8 to 10 lbs each. The fight was excellent with the fish peeling off drag from time to time. The rod was bent almost double as we turned the fish and wound down. Pretty good stuff for a telescopic device. The drag worked perfectly and was smooth. It was a good 5 minute fight as we gained back line only to lose it again with with furious runs by the jack. .....very fun..... With the last fish a 7 ft. shark...

Sent a different color than pictured., By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Shakespeare Medium Action Travel Mate Telescopic Kit Combo (6-Feet 6-Inch) (Sports) I got this rod for my husband for Father's Day since we are going to stay at a cabin. He loves it! It's surprising how compact it is and how long it gets. It seems sturdy too. The only thing was that we were sent a BLUE reel. Honestly, I prefer the blue so it was a nice surprise (our son's pole is blue and he loves that they match)... but I imagine some people might expect and prefer the red so I thought it was worth mentioning. I'd still recommend it! It's a very handsome blue. |
