I live in AZ. I fly to Iowa a couple times a year to go fishing with my brother up north.
Packs well in my suitcase. Great combo that can handle big Northern with ease

I had a chance to fish with it tonight and reeled in a 25 in stripper with relative ease.
Reel is light and smooth.
Rod is sensitive and really light also. Seems well made.

Excellent Value and Performance

I have used this for surf casting, light jigging, pier fishing, and top water on an ocean kayak off of reefs and the combo has exceeded my expectations. The battle iii dx is an outstanding value, I was very pleasantly surprised by the high quality of the Tackle Direct rod.

My only complaints are the reel seat could have been of a nicer quality, only because it isn’t read more at the same level as the rest of the rod, that is to say the reel seat is of a quality I expected for the price but the guides and blank are way nicer than I thought they would be. This set up has been prone to throwing wind knots but I suspect that is because Tackle Direct put the entire spool of braid on the reel so it’s over lined by 40 yards. I’m going to take off some braid and hopefully that will fix the issue.

Caught 3 - 4 lb Jacks on top water with absolutely no issue and still has good sensitivity for sea mullet and spot.

I’d give the combo a 4.5 out of 5.

Rod just okay

My biggest issue with the rod is that the heel of my hand rests on the threaded plastic for the reel seat. So the ergonomics aren't great for me. Rod is of good quality for the money, and the travel tube is nice enough.

Nice combo

This is a great combo at excellent value. Can’t wait for the Covid to go away so I can travel and use this combo

AWESOME DEAL

This combo is an incredible deal, the stradic alone is almost worth the entire combo. Before it arrived I was nervous that the rod would not be very high quality but once it arrived I was pleasantly surprised. All around an awesome combo I am looking forward to taking it to Costa Rica.

Trav combo for mexico trips
