My wife has a spinning rod she got from her grandpa. We bought the MegaCast cause it was cheap and recommended and we love it. I have a Pflueger Monarch Baitcaster combo, but I’m having some frustrations with it and I’m getting very jealous of my wife’s rod so now I want my own.
She also has a cheap Walmart Eagle Claw collapsing combo that she loves to use for simple spinners and spoons so she can keep it ready to go. I like to get in little hour fishing sessions after work so a ready to fish set up that isn’t 7 feet long sounds nice, so I was looking to do the same thing. I can’t really find a higher quality collapsing pole. They are all kind of chincey. I am worried i’m spending an extra $15 to have a worse version of just getting the full sized MegaCast set up if I just deal with a 6’ pole.
Anyone have experience with the extendable pole and if it’s worth the money?

I was gifted one of the cheap chinese ones a few years back called the plusinno and to my surprise it’s help up very well, i even caught my pb bass on it. I think it can be bought for less than $30.
I do not think telescopic rods provide a good experience and I do not recommend them. Why not get a two-piece version of a reasonable rod that you like? It would be about 3 feet long when broken down, and pretty easy to transport. I think there’s probably a 2 piece megacast.
