Daiwa ultralight combo
I've waited a while to write this review so that I could give an accurate reflection of how I feel about the product. I've managed to pack this rod into the backwoods about 10 times this summer and I can safely say that this is the best money I've spent on the internet. I keep waiting for the 'shattering' that the previous reviewer mentioned, but so far, so good. The rod is stiff, but with enough give to finesse a trout to the shore without pulling its jaw out. The whole kit packs in a small, utilitarian holder with space for a tiny 8 piece tackle box, just enough for weekend hike-in camping trip to log-filled alpine lakes. The rod has maintained tight connections between the segments, and the reel is as smooth as silk. I haven't had any issues with the drag as was also reported. It's a little pricey, but if you do as much hike-in trout fishing as I do, the compact size and light weight are well worth it.

Daiwa ultralight combo
Yes, it looks nice, it's super light and it packs very small. But the rod shattered into multiple pieces when I was trying to free a snag. I've never seen anything like it in 30+ yrs fishing. I moved the reel to another rod but it too failed after a couple of trips- seems like the spool came loose from the mechanism below- rendering the drag inoperable. I've not tried to fix it yet. Not sure I want to waste any more time. I think I boated three trout for my whole investment. Beware this product.

Rod and reel
Top rod and reel combo. great for transport. Shipping was bit pricey almost as much as rod and reel but it got to Australia in less than a week.

Excellent ultra-lite and a pack rod with a nice case.
This is a good quality rod and reel. Treat it like any good ultra-lite graphite rod. The case is a little bulky, at about 21" long and 8" wide at the mouth, but it is actually reinforced and quite rigid. This makes it ideal for strapping to the outside of your pack. Mine has already caught fish and dealt with snags. If you're partial to open reels, this is the set for serious hike-in fishing.
