This is a great product for the money. You won't find anything close to it at retail, that's for sure. Although the rods are best suited for light to medium size fish (ie. fresh water rainbow trout, crappies, etc) you won't be disappointed. My fifteen year old son caught his first two pound cat fish with this combo in a relatively short time after we started fishing and won our fishing pool. Needless to say, He's now "hooked" on fishing.

can't beat for the price
veggiecar  from Santa Cruz,CA,  Jul 23, 2008
this kit is really great for the price. I'm sure it's not going to last a lifetime, but it should last for a few years if I take halfway decent care of them. I gave one to my wife. one to my oldest son and I took one. My son and I tried them out up in northern CA. and we both ended-up catching multiple fish. The reels seemed to work well and the rods were more than durable enough to handle the trout we were after. I'd say for the price they were a great bargain.

Great stuff!
allrightthen  from Cape Coral FL,  Apr 9, 2008
This is a not too fancy but complete fishing set for a family to begin lite fishing for entertainment and many good meals. The quality is great for the price and the add on tackle and fishing guide is great for beginners and children. We got the set when we moved to a rental on a fresh water canal for the family and have had a lot of fun with it (but you do need to pick up some extra tackle for Bass.)

general fishing
ocrittermom  from Houston,  Mar 29, 2008
We loved this rod/reel set. As novice fishermen, we wanted something easy to assemble and use. They did tangle kind of easy but I believe a lot of that fault is with the fishermen rather than the poles. We fished off of a houseboat and found casting easy and forgiving. Shipping was fast and easy. I tried to find a similar deal at local out doors stores here in Houston and nothing came close to this deal.

These fishing poles have not been put to the test yet, but they seem well made and they are certainly worth what we paid for them. They are especially good if you are trying to teach multiple kids to fish. -- A good value.

Great fun product
mgbuckscounty  from Bucks County Pa,  Jan 9, 2008
Grandpa received this for Christmas at our vacation home in Fl. Two days later was out with the grandkids fishing on the river. The poles were a big hit and served the purpose very well...even caught fish!

Pretty useful kit
teacherk117  from Long Island NY,  Dec 28, 2007
My sons fish in the summer and fall when they are at camp or at our country home on the bay. Every year they break a pole. This kit is perfect. It has three fishing poles and all the stuff they need to have a good time. They are not the heaviest or strongest looking - but, they are fine for amateurs and the price is good for 3 poles. It's a nice gift to give to a family with kids so dad can take the kids out fishing and everyone can have his own pole. I recommend it for these purposes.

I bought this gift for my best friend who loves to fish. Although I am clueless in the world of fishing, I read the other reviews of this product and bought it. On Christmas day, what a sight when my friend opened up the gift. Not only was she exstatic but she had to try them each out right in my living rm. She said they were awesome and the fact that they have locking mechanisms for the line made it the best present for her this holiday. So, from her words and mine "Thank You". This product is worth it s value.

Christmas in Bulk!
mnticeman  from Blowing Rock NC,  Nov 24, 2007
This is the perfect Christmas Gift for my nephews. Being a bulk order, I was able to give them and their father and grandfather a fishing rod for them to hone their developing skills and passion for the outdoors.

I Bought this as a gift, After receiving it I found it to be much better then expected. Very nice for the money. They will get many years of use from the rods and reels. I would highly rcommend this to anyone looking for fishing gear.
