Hey guys,
I've recently purchased a small pen rod for $30 at my local tacklestore. Now it's only a meter long, but I am very impressed with the quality of the reel and the lightness of the rod. Great to bring on an overseas trip where you may be doing a little bit of fishing. I'll get pics up soon, and if I catch anything on it I'll post the pics here.
Does anybody else have one?? :thumbsup:
Cheers

Hey vinhii, yeah it's a good rod, but very thin. I'm not sure if it could handle anything decent, but we'll find out soon enough :? I'll give it a go when we arrive at Merimbula on Saturday. aahhh can't wait!! :Dvinhii wrote:TrevKing wrote:Hey guys,
