Xpedite Pro Telescopic Spinning Rod

Had to wait to actually use it before I wrote a review. Spent a week in Ft. Myers Fl. area fishing off bridges and my back dock. This pole was great! The action was fast enough for good casting distance but stiff enough to lad some decent fish with ease. Had it paired with Pflueger spinning reel spooled with 20# braid and using 8-15lb leaders. Caught several decent fish and never had an issue with this pole. I was a little concerned using a telescopic rod, always seamed cheap to me. This one was great! Never had any issues with it folding up, stayed extended. Does twist a little bit that’s to be expected, nothing huge. Overall I was very pleased with this rod and may purchase another so I can have two go my trip to Belize. I’ll review again after that trip.

This telescopic pole is exactly what I was looking for. It feels very sturdy for being telescopic. I had a decent Shimano spinning reel and this pole fits it perfect and is fantastic for having a low profile setup that I can keep in my vehicle for any time that I am out and about and that fishing bug hits. I have not pulled in anything huge on it yet, but the fish I have pulled with it had 0 issues. You can feel the hits on this each time. Sure, it could have better action and it could be more sturdy, but for a telescopic it more than does the job I was looking for.

I bought this 7-8 weight telescopic rod (and 400 Penn spin reel) to fit in my small checked luggage when I went on a recent Alaskan cruise. I was hoping to catch King salmon from small pier near shore but realized the rod might not be strong enough. The rod was a little stiff & took some getting used to but worked fine & as luck would have it I caught a near 40 lb King salmon with it. The rod held up & the reel helped a lot. Don't know how long it will take abuse but it worked for me. Photo attached

Bought this to take to Malaysia for a week as I stay by an estuary. Fits nicely into a carry on. Caught a couple of fish, got stuck in the rocks , always managed to get the line back. Unfortunately the rod just broke this evening as I was reeling in and got it caught on submerged rocks, a lateral pull and it just cracked and rod half was gone. Real shame , as I was enjoying it . Spend the money and get a tougher rod. It’s was lightweight, locked well and nice color with cork handle

I was a little skeptical honestly. Then I got the 7' rod. I love it now. I'm not a pro fisherman but this is really nice. The blue is deep and very sharp looking. There is attention to details on this that are better than I expected. The spinning version has a nice taper to the cork handle that is in a nice spot for a good grip. The extension and retraction is easy to do also. Takes a little practice getting the rings aligned perfectly straight but is still fast and easier with a reel and line on it. This rod is rather stiff but I can still bend the rod so the tip is pointing straight down with a gentle curve and feel comfortable that I'm not going to break it. My last setup was a $60 combo from sporting store. I put that reel on this rod and it's changed the game entirely even with a cheap reel. I have a 20lbs 8 strand braided line the flys through the ceramic rings compared to the metal rings on my cheaper rig. Testing it out in my yard with a 1/4 oz drop weight was fun. Not a full cast, just a flick had it out 100+ feet. The 7 foot rod collapses as small as they say. It fits nicely on the side of a regular backpack. My cheap reel, line and this rod with the protector on it were a mere 14.5 oz. Less than a pound. It's really awesome being that lite because it keeps the rod balanced during use. I never realized how tip heavy the cheap combo was until I upgraded. It really helps the hand fatigue. If I have one complaint, it's that the protector seems designed for the shorter versions. The larger 2-3 rings aren't covered. For $30, this is really a steal. I'm thinking I'll get a shorter version for when I'm fishing a river from my kayak and need more control/accuracy. Overall, I highly recommend this. No regrets here. I'd buy it again.

Got this as a gift for my son and he really liked it at first. Said it felt like it was nice and well made. However, the first time he used it the end snapped off, so now he can’t use it.

beautiful invention! Now I can go fishing with no worries of rod fitting in my vehicle!

It's better than it has any right to be. Does not feel like a travel pole. Throw a decent 3000 size reel on it with some 8lb mono and you got a good all around setup you can take anywhere.

Richtige Größe für das Flugzeug

Très bonne canne à pêche télescopique

Fantastic

nice folding rod

Seems like a real decent rod for the price. Played around casting jigs off the shore, getting stuck on the bottom etc and it didnt break yet so thats good lol
