i am looking for a decent spinning rod that is either a pack or telescoping and i can throw into my luggage when i travel, primarily in the caribbean and the u.s -primarily salt water-something to use off of rocks and bridges and would prefer a 7' medium action that i can spool 10 to 15 lb test on-or in that neighborhood. i found an ugly stick 4 section 6'6" rod and everything else seems like junk. any suggestions? john.

I know that in the UK Shimano do a range of multi piece travel rods.

Bass Pro Shops Extreme travel rods are what you are looking for. Nice 3-piece rods with case for around $99.00. They'll fit in a large suitcase. I own and use one.
