Shimano STC Exage BX Mini Tele-Spin

I am very impressed with the quality of this travel rod. Feels very close to my other 2 section rods. I can fit this easily in my back pack. The carry case that's include will also hold the spinning reel attached to the rod. My only qualm is only thin the tip is. I have yet to try out this rod. Will see how it performs.

Rod is a great bit of kit good action caught a few big fish using it as a float rod and as a feeder rod just not got to use it as a spin rod yet so 3 rods in one for one great price a must have travel rod if your always on the move

Really quick delivery. Comes in amazing protective case which you can fit a reel into as well. top quality rod. I have bought quite a few telescopic rods before and this one is the only one I have had that feels like it is built to last! Can definitely handle large river game!

I travel with it years already and can't get enough. One became default equipement of my car (fits to my glove compartement!) another gets with me wherever I go with plane. Several Mepps Aglia 3-5 in a plastic bag for protection, two floaters, hooks and leads enter easily inside the protective tube, one does not even have to take his suit off to seduce local spikes!
Try to treat it like your wife though, like other telescopes it will suffer if you hit it too hard against some branches when fishing. My first one, little damaged like that, broke under 3kg spike.
It's not an average rod. Its luxury accesory :)

received item quickly and upon first inspection was pleased and can't way to give it a try

received item sooner than expected, was really pleased with quality a bit expensive but have used several times and item is better than i first thought.

Thank u it was a good deal with fast shipping. A+++

Very surprised at the quality of this rod for the price. It arrived today so as yet I haven't had a chance to use it. Looking forward to better weather where I'll use it in my kayak. Really liked the rod and reel case which came with the rod. It will stay in my travel bag on future overseas trips

I've used the telespins for years and it a super versatile little rod. I use the older Exage AX STC MTE 210M 7' with cast weight 10g -30g with 28lb braid. I've found with this set up I can cast very light spinners right up to the 4" storm perch wildeye lures. The rod had a light crisp tip action for the lighter spinners with lots of power in the lower sections when you land that bigger fish. It's the best action telescopic I've found.

Be careful though, the rings are very fragile and prone to bend. Do not put pressure on rod rings when setting up or packing down rod. Also be very careful when you put the rod back into the hardcase. Put rod in first followed by the butt section.

Perfect all rounder especially if you like to hike, travel or keep mobile.

Hope this helps

A really fantastic piece of engineering, compact to carry in a useful case but extends into a well built, quality rod. Ordering was easy with a great layout to the website matched by very fast delivery and updates on its progress. Faultless.
