By Keith from Reno, NV on 10/27/2009 Pros: Accurate Casting, Easy To Transport, Good Tip Action Best Uses: Fly Fishing, River Fishing Describe Yourself: Avid Fisher Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This is a nice rod at a great price. The easy action is a great confidence builder for novice casters. The extra tip is a bonus. I would recommend this rod to a friend and maybe even buy another one in a different weight.
By hooked up from Zionsville,Ind. on 10/01/2009 Pros: Accurate Casting, Easy To Transport, Flexible Best Uses: Fly Fishing, River Fishing, Small Fish Describe Yourself: Avid Fisher Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I bought this rod for wilderness backpacking and the two tips are really nice because it's not uncommon to break a tip in the backcountry.The rod is medium not fast and the tip is not the most sensitive but it loads well and with a relaxed casting style it casts nice.It does not have the traditional snake guides and the finish is nice.People at targus are super.A good value rod.
By Matt G from Boulder, CO on 05/26/2009 Pros: Accurate Casting, Durable, Easy To Transport, Flexible, Good Tip Action, Sensitive Best Uses: Fly Fishing, River Fishing Describe Yourself: Avid Fisher Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This was a great value and I am very happy with the quality. This rod was purchased for hiking into mountain lakes, and the 4 piece design makes packing a breeze. I have been flyfishing for 8 years and I will look for another Targus in a 3 weight. This rod is very lightweight and casts well. Moreover, it comes with an extra tip section in case breakage occurs. Overall, I am happy with the price and performance.
