****Update**** I've caught SO MANY 4 lb and up Smallies on this rod/reel since I made this review video. I HIGHLY recommend it! Link to purchase it is in the description. I even bought another one after I dropped my free one in the lake.

[@vehiclemiracle-nd6qp]

The butt cap is removal so that you can remove the individual telescopic rod sections for disassembly, repairs, or cleaning. All the pieces come out the back for removal. You cant store anything in there because the handle is not hollow when the rod is fully collapsed.

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

I never knew that. Thanks you 👍

[@AlexODO]

Love the video Bryan ! Hope you’ve been killing it out there !

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

Thanks, bud! I’ve been having great luck with the Smallies this year. So good that I’ve kind of abandoned Harsens Island but I’ll make it back there eventually.

[@randy3366]

Good job. Keep up the honest assessment of the products you review.

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

Thanks! 8 of those 10 big Smallies were caught in this rod. Definitely a winner.

[@AnglingSpiders]

Fantastic review, we have been really impressed with ours so far, great to see someone else's perspective!

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

Great to hear! I REALLY put it to the test this week with all of the big Smallies! I have full trust in it now.

[@floridaflash]

Thanks for the honesty. I have always wondered how good these rods were.

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

You’re welcome. Very good for the light baits and not so much for bigger ones. I’m sure you can get bit but it just feels too weird and it was driving me crazy when the Swimbait felt like a crank 😂

[@LarrysFishing]

Great job Brian and way to pull no punches. So far I have liked everything from Plusinno and believe their products are terrific for people looking to start fishing.

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

Thanks, Larry. I agree...both products I've tried out seem to be really well built. I don't get to use the net enough to really test the durability but I will be running this rod/reel through the ringer. If it fails on me early I'll be letting everyone know but I doubt that it will happen.

[@PAWMANSBASSING]

Awesome review Bryan!!! Definitely an compact travel rod that you can use for those unplanned adventures. I really like the combo it definitely looks and functions as a quality combo. Thanks for sharing brother

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

Thanks Patrick! I’ve wanted one of these for awhile. I can’t wait for my first, spur of the moment, trip with it. 👍

[@ReelifeFishing]

Great review buddy

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

Thanks! 👍

[@BeardedDadFishing]

Good review brother. Plenty of "that's what she said" moments too so bonus points there. I've considered buying one to keep in the truck but always wondered on the quality. Seems like a good option for sure. Also, nice hat 😉

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

Right on! Lots of "tip" talk in this one. Glad you like the hat. Some guy who has nearly as many subs as I do with about 15 videos gave it to me 😂

[@bogolyskeepingitreel]

Omg 🤣😂😳. I was cracking up…just the tip n that dude!!!! Rocket scientologist …your killing it in this video 😂 Really great review here Bryan, top to bottom you covered it all including on the water. Well done!

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

Thanks, Chris. Plusinno will probably never contact me again but I was keeping it REEL. 😂👍

[@bogolyskeepingitreel]

@@TheMichiganFisherman absolutely brother 👊

[@michiganfishing8094]

"Looks like the plumbing under my kitchen sink." Lololol. Good honest review. Like how you go over pluses and negatives. And I'm glad your not just endorsing the product the whole video. Looks like a decent product overall.

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

Thanks, bud. I won’t lie on a review. There’s been a few products I turned down and one that I accepted that I told the company I was sorry but their product sucked and I was either going to say it or not make the video. They just said keep the lures. 😂 I tossed them. They were terrible.

[@michiganfishing8094]

@@TheMichiganFisherman lolol. I normally don't like product reviews but you kept it entertaining.

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

@@michiganfishing8094 I don’t like them, either. 😂

"I'm not a rocket scientolgist" 🤣😅🤣 Great review man got to love a rod/reel combo you can travel with.

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

Thanks, bud! 😂 I can’t for that first roadside stop where I use it

[@JoeNajorFishing]

I’m going to check out the small one. I think it would be great for panfish. I can keep it in my storage compartment on the kayak. Sometimes when I’m sucking at catching bass, which is often, I always wish I had an ultralight onboard for bluegill and crappie. Great review Bryan. Thanks buddy!🙌🎣 Just the tip!😂😂

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

That’s an awesome idea, Joe! There’s been a few days at Harsens where the bluegill/pumpkinseed bite has been on (keep stealing my plastics) and I wish I had one as well.

[@leoveroude4492]

I travel with two collapsible rods on my small adv motorcycle! Gets me into tight spots or well off the road if I'm creek fishing. The collapse rods make it possible, and with fuel prices...... Really appreciate your reviews!!

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

Those collapsible rods are awesome. In my most recent video I caught 8 out of the 10 HUGE smallmouth bass on them. I’m a believer now. If they can hold up to 4.5 lb smallmouth bass for that price, you can’t beat it.

[@reelfeelfishing]

Just the tip !!! Hahhahaha 🤣 I do like that button that collapsed the reel a little more. That is strange it was shaking with that paddle tail though. But glad you got a fish and a true test. Great review !

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

Thanks Jared! I think it’s gonna be my setup that always has a texas rig on it going forward. Worked well for sure. 👍

[@PuddleWalkersOutdoors]

Just the tip... Great review. I was checking this out. I could really use one of these for a secondary in the creek. I'm thinking a Ned setup ready to go incase nothing else is working.

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

That's the main reason I said yes to the review. Definitely sensitive enough. I was bummed I didn't get the hookset on camera. I had just paddled about a half a mile in from the main lake and that was LITERALLY my first cast under that dock. I felt every bit of that bite. Great rod for lighter baits.

[@PuddleWalkersOutdoors]

@@TheMichiganFisherman I have a $20 eagle claw one and I was surprised at how durable yet flimsy the rod is.

[@SaskFisher]

I like it! Nice vid. Reason it would be good for me is for creek fishing. I wanna bring the fly rod and this. Way easier to keep them packed away! Oh yaaasssss

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

It would DEFINITELY work for that and it's literally the reason I told them I'd try it out (Even though I didn't take it on a creek yet). I was thinking the same thing, I could bring two rods way easier if one could be packed away.

[@SaskFisher]

@@TheMichiganFisherman Yes sir! That would be my buying and the selling point for sure. Nice

[@HenriVineFishing]

"It looks like the plumbing under my sink" 🤣 you cracked me up on that one haha. That was a fantastic review. Too be honest after listening to this I think I would purchase it. That cap on the handle, maybe it's to sneak a little shot of rhum? 🤔😝

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

Thanks, man! I will ask Plusinno if that's what it's for 😂

[@DpuckFishingandOutdoors]

They are sending me this very combo to try out when I get back from my vacation, in a few weeks. 😮 They asked me, "Can you do a 'normal' video?" 😂

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

Sounds like they know your channel very well 😂👍

[@AlergicToSnow]

The hollow handle can hold weights to balance the rod.

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

I NEVER thought of that! That MUST be it 😀👍

[@calebalvarez1234]

First thing I thought of

[@KevinAlvino]

Very useful video, like 👍☕🎣

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

Thank you 👍

[@TheOutdoorConquest]

I appreciate this honest review because I was considering picking one up until you mentioned it’s not worth fishing with heavy lures. I’m all about the heavy artillery/power fishing and I can’t see myself being able to make good use out of it. Otherwise it looks like a nice setup!

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

Thanks, bud! 👊🤨 It's still worth a purchase just to always have with you, although you have a truck so I'm sure that's not an issue for you. But for me and my midsize car, this is a game changer. Now I'll always have something in case I see a spot on the side of the road.

[@user-ki9ts4do9w]

No. 1 best product

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

I like it a lot.

[@ParabellumFishing]

Solid review man. I used to have one similar to this. Same brand but I dont think it was that model. I also had mixed feelings but overall as a back up for the car, it worked just as well as the Quantum version I owned previously. Saying that, the rod tip snapped on a hookset. Still have the reel somewhere LOL. Enjoy the jokes spread in there as always. LOL

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

Thanks, Joe. The tip is the only thing I’m concerned with as well. Time will tell. By the way, after being gone for a few days I returned home to find your package at the doorstep. Looks great, man. Can’t wait to try them out.

[@ParabellumFishing]

@@TheMichiganFisherman That’s great bro! Glad they arrived safely. Looking forward to hearing how you like them 👊🏻

[@diegohperez6434]

Uf look closer the rod is exactly the same I got it last week im happy now reeel next ja ja i really enjoy this video thanks again 😅

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

😂 You bet!

[@janslotta3938]

My thought of the hollow handle is to keep it floating if it should be dropped in the water.

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

Hopefully I never have to test it out in that fashion 😂

[@mackredsnapper]

The screw cap on the bottom is to put extra weight like egg sinkers for if you ever changed to a lighter reel. Instead of the rod being tip heavy the sinker(s) you use would balance the rod. Just put the sinker(s) in a small sandwich bag and stuff them in the handle so that they don't constantly roll/bounce around inside the handle.

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

Thanks for the Pro Tip! 👊

[@DontaeRiley]

That hallow dugout is for your weed 🤣

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

[@ico_s]

I'm not Shure exactly why but I think its to put weights in to distribute the weight

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

That might be. I’ll look into it.

[@CrytoTalksPH]

Hey! I was just wondering if the rod is still ok until now? I've seen many reviews that the rod easily broke. Is it true? Coz I want to buy the product though.

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

Well…last year I flipped my kayak and it sank to the bottom of the lake. I caught a BUNCH of BIG smallmouth on that rod and it never had an issue. I just bought a new one two weeks ago (with my own money this time) and I used it last week. Seriously I like the rod and hopefully this time I don’t lose it so I can test its durability.

[@CrytoTalksPH]

@@TheMichiganFisherman good to note sir, tanx!

@@TheMichiganFisherman about to order now!!!!

[@KavalanSol]

Isn't this the old version? Couple years ago they made a new version that is supposed to be way better. Lighter and better balanced. It'd has a more ornate design in the end of the handle.

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

Not sure. They have MANY different looks to their collapsible rods. This is just the one I was sent. I actually assumed it was newer. I really do like the rod. So much so that after I dropped this in the lake (this was FREE) I went out and bought another one.

[@KavalanSol]

@@TheMichiganFisherman yes it's a bit confusing. But I guess overall they should be very similar! Thanks for your review! 😁

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

@@KavalanSol no problem. I may even make another video about this rod because after I made this video I caught a BUNCH of 4 lb smallmouth on it and it holds up just fine. If you choose to get one I hope you like it.

[@kingthelstan854]

What lure weight for this rod please?

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

Man! I totally forgot to mention that. My bad. It says 30g-60g on it.

[@kingthelstan854]

@TheMichiganFisherman no problem and thanks for the info my friend. I bought one of these shipped to UK off the back of your review and struggled to find these details out 😀 also can you advise on what weight the rod can handle? Planning to take it for first outing on North Wales coast this weekend for mackerel/pollock/bass fishing. Many thanks

[@cryptobeetle]

You can put a hidden stash of "snacks" in the handle. Thats what its for.

[@TheMichiganFisherman]

It MUST be for that! 😂👍
