Multisection [ 3/4/5 section] Rods are said to a boon for anglers who travel. There is no doubt about their convenience how good are they on a day of hard casting and fighting a bigger than normal fish. I have that feeling that they cannot match their 2 section cousins.

Both myself and a pal have been converted to shimano travel rod for Mahseer fishing on the Ramganaga. My pal has considerable experience (20yrs) on the Cauvery and was suitable impressed with its performance (fish to 35lb thus far).

We use them for spinning and chilwa/atta fishing, They are 10ft convertable to 9 ft if needed, cast upto 50gm.

Biggest proble I have found with ravel rods is they can be heavy to hold all day but these are great.

I also used them in Florida keys landign smal shark, barracuda too!

For the travelling man they are super but choose wisely.....

Not sure if they are upto playing the monsters in the south but hopefukky we will find out next year:)

Ialso used multisection fly rods and these too are great. I think todays technology has given us a good deal of choice.

Hi Ashok,

I have been using a 5pc Shimano (EXAGE) and a Quantum Great White 3pc travel rod for some time now. After I got these two rods, I have stopped using all my other rods. Though I havent caught a very big fish with these rods, still I feel they are capable.

Cheers,
Apoo

Ditto here too.
I am also a Shimano Exage user and have found them to be extremely versatile.
The Shimano STC range offers a very wide variety of travel rods suitable for almost all types of fishing.
