Quick take
A 24T carbon telescopic rod that collapses to 17 inches for travel and features fast action.
This 7-foot rod has a medium power and fast action, and it is built from 24T carbon with a solid carbon tip. It weighs 152 grams and folds to under 17 inches, so it fits in a backpack or a car trunk. The 8 to 17 lb line rating suits spinning setups for bass and trout. A cork handle with EVA sections and an ABS reel seat with CNC aluminum parts finish the rod. Its extra length over the 6-foot sibling gives more reach from the bank.
