IF YOU ORDER 1 or 2 BACKPACKER COMBOS Internationally (OUT OF THE UNITED STATES), WE WILL ASK FOR ADDITIONAL SHIPPING & HANDLING FEES! Some Countries like Korea, Singapore.

I have carried (when I could fit them in my pack/pulk/canoe, deal with the weight, or just be bothered) and used almost every type of “travel” and “survival” rod out there. This time (winter in northern Finland/Sweden/Norway) I took my Backpacker/FD150 combo and was it an eye-opener. The easiest to carry (I almost forgot I had it with me), set-up and cast (I use 1/80th ultralight jigs and soft-plastics, usually Mule Fishing or TroutMagnet on 2lb test and it was ideal for them) and whilst I’m usually successful (eventually) ‘this’ time I caught what I wanted almost first cast every time (remember this is 8ft of snow, -20, Nordic winter we’re talking about too).
I just ditched ‘all’ my other rods (hand-casters, etc.) for my trips (I may not even use them at home either). Seriously, you simply don’t need anything else!
(My Sami and Tornedalian friends think I had NASA make it for me lol, I had to tell them I don't think NASA could, and they definitely couldn't better it).
