TELESCOPIC FISHING ROD AND REEL

#1 Post by chenz116 »

Ive been beach fishing a few months and really enoying it. Have had some good days and some bad days.

On my last day out i was having no luck so decided to try the rocks that were close, only problem was standing there with a 12 foot rod isnt the most comfortable thing.

Would my best option be to buy a telescopic rod and reel set to keep in my bang and if so what should i look to spend ??

ive seen ones starting from €30

I've tried the telescopic rods and really don't like . I just found after awhile they gave me trouble.I guess if they were any good lots more people would use them.maybe try an 8 ft spinning rod wouldnt be that much extra to carry.
