• Starting at the handle, tightly squeeze the ferrules together, twisting the rod sections both clockwise and anti-clockwise to secure them together. Apply light pressure till the female section won't be able to extend.
• Aligning the guides on the rod, gently twist the rod sections both clockwise and anti-clockwise to enable the line to run smoothly along the guides.
• To separate, go backward through the process.
• Save in a soft rod bag inside a rod tube.

Handle

The rod's changeable handle lets you set it up as a fly rod or a spin and bait fishing rod.

Butt Plug

A compression joint, the Butt Plug, may need to be pushed in to fit tightly. The rod runs flawlessly without it; thus, you might find it too much trouble.

Handle

The rod has a convertible handle. Hence, it may be configured as a fly rod or as a spin and bait fishing rod. Unlike other travel rods, the pieces all screw together, allowing you four reel placement possibilities with a rather balanced handle.

Rod Constructions

The fishing rod's blank is a special combination of carbon, high-glass, and nylon. This is the ideal mix to create a rod this little.

Their hybrid-size eyes for the rod will help them work equally in fly and spin fishing. They will also work for baitcasting.

Joints

Every rod joint is manually polished and sanded. Unlike other rod companies, they are female into male joints. To be snug, they should be forced tightly together. Check the eyes' alignment and the rigidity of the joints every several minutes, as with any travel rods.

X5 Adventure Reels 

Fly Reel

One might use it as either left or right wind. Before adding your line, set the reel on the rod in the intended left or right position.

Spin Reel

• Unscrew the good nut opposite the handle to switch from left to right. Slide the handle out, then insert it from the other side.
• Salt treatment of the reel stops corrosion. After the reel has been used in saltwater, washing it down in tap water is still wise.
