Quick take

A 30-inch spincast combo with light action and no-tangle design, ready to fish out of the box.

This pocket-sized spincast combo pairs a light-power fiberglass rod with a micro spincast reel that has a 4.1:1 gear ratio. The telescopic rod extends to 30 inches and collapses to about 18, so it slips into a pack or tackle bag. The reel comes spooled with 6 lb monofilament, and a spinner bait and practice plug are included, which suits a beginner or anyone wanting a compact backup outfit.
