Zebco 33 Cork Micro Spincast Reel and 2-Piece Fishing Rod Combo, Cork Handle, Quickset Anti-Reverse Fishing Reel with Bite Alert, Black

I bought this for a lighter setup for brook trout and panfish after years of just fishing fly. I have had it on the water 4 times so far, no issues. Today I was into a good spot for pumpkinseed and sunfish, the combo worked very well for them. To my surprise a 14" smallmouth hit, it gave the rod a workout but I was able to net the bass (not what I would have used if I suspected that fish but the combo held up). Will be thinking about another setup as my wife fishes as well.

Arrived on time and as described .The push button in the reel broke within the first two weeks replaced by seller without question .Rod and reel was purchased for my grandson and is a perfect introductory rod/reel. Lightweight

...I have been using the top half of these rods as a cheap option to re-tip my UL casting rod when its top half breaks, but, recently just put my Zebco spincasting ZD2 reel on the complete rod itself and went trout fishing at the local pond to check it out before letting my young Grand Nephew use it... Caught 16 trout on it and lost some , so, it was a decent test of it.... Biggest test will be when I latch into a big fish, but, looks like I'm going to save a lot of money, getting these rods instead of the pricier ones I have been re-tipping...

I’m a fishing nut. I’ve been fishing for 50+ years and own 100+ rod/reel combos. I wanted something short and light specifically for kayak fishing. It’s perfect. Wish I bought two! :)

Bought it for my 8 year old son. Still in one piece . IM-6 graphite composite rod is holding up. The real well ... I changed the line to 6 pound test. After it tangled up inside . Then had to cut the line out and add new line . All sad and dune . About 20 minutes. Cast a lot better with lighter line for smaller ligjter lures . I even bought last years model with the fome handle for my nephew.
