Rod/reel combo with fishing kit as an emergency setup kzfaq.infoUgkxntWMOZsO1Zfv-pdn_XuffEtNkTYAYu4Z recommend but started to use this every day. The rod is thick and seems durable. I keep it neatly tucked into a regular backpack all the time with my fishing gear, and can grab it anytime, put it on my back and go anywhere. I just read in another review that the rod length below the reel is adjustable as well, so I will try that too for even more portability. Probably the best setup I've ever owned. I lost the cap for the eyelets, but no big deal since I still have the black cloth sheath that came for the pole and I use that. Very portable and high quality.

Wow just seeing this out of the box kzfaq.infoUgkxQr1yd4Zc6qJF-scTB6Zb9dQbVpviuRxB recommend I have yet to fish with this set up, but based on the first hands on appeal, I can tell this is going to change the way i pack and carry to a whole new level. If you fish like i do, you know the smaller and less stuff the better. I’ve added a photo of just some of my gear so you can see how serious i am about fishing.

Wow! it is really neat to see a top notch manufacture build their product on video. I love how Seeker wraps the end of the sheet material multiple times around the mandrel to reduce axial stress concentrations in the finished rod when it is fighting a fish. Really impressed!

Hate to tell you but this isn't how Seeker has made rods for nearly 5 years. The company was sold and production was moved overseas. The gentleman giving this presentation and much of the staff went to United Composites. Seeker rods have gone downhill since the ownership change happened. If you can find a Seeker from before 2017 they are absolutely awesome. Not so much since then though.

Seeker’s should start making “Acid Rods” aka “Spiral Wrapped Rods”.., I’ve been a true believer of Acid Rods more and more! I also feel that conventional rods is far more weaker as how it’ll twist as the bigger fishes are pulling HARD!!! And as for spiral wrapped rods there’s no twist lol *smiles* Seeker’s should listen 😉

I have added one step to make my rods perfect; I added weights to the butt under the butt cap to balance the butt with the blade where my fingers hold the rod at the reel seat. The only weight I feel is the lure. My wrist doesn't have to twist the tip upwards against the blade weight, the butt weights do it.

Great video. I've just started building custom rods and I know what you mean about the time consuming this hobby is, but when the final project is done great joy. I have a question for you Mr. Dohi, what do you do with the blanks that has in perfections or flaws? I have a lot of trouble finding blanks at a decent price. I'm a disabled combat veteran and I build custom rods and give them to people who aren't fortunate enough to afford a fishing pole, so that's what I do.I sure hope you get back with me a lot of companies just blow me off or ignore my question. Aloha from theMid-West.
