Soloscopic Performance Technology
KastKing KastFlex Toray 24-Ton Carbon Matrix blank and solid glass tip section deliver unmatched durability, sensitivity and performance. One-piece performance in a six-piece telescopic rod design.

Multipurpose
The KastKing BlackHawk II travel fishing rod is available in 14 lengths and actions in travel spinning rod and casting rod models. You'll find the perfect spinning fishing rod or baitcasting rod for almost any fresh or saltwater fishing situation whether your trout fishing, bass fishing, kayak fishing or even as a n inshore fishing rod for saltwater fishing from the bank or boat. KastKing travel rods feature amazing design and perfect balance.
Convenient
Besides the obvious advantage of easy travel over the traditional 1 & 2 pc fishing rods, they save valuable fishing time because you can leave the reel on the rod, line through the guides and fully rigged. Simply open the bail with line through the guides and hook attached, extend the rod to its working length and you'll be fishing again in seconds without re-rigging. Telescopic rods are portable, convenient, and easy-to-carry. Travel anywhere with your Blackhawk II travel rod.
Superior Quality
Only high-quality components including stainless steel line guides, graphite reel seats and comfortable EVA handles are used in the construction of the new and improved, KastKing BlackHawk II telescopic rods. The entire series of spinning rods and casting fishing rods makes a great travel fishing pole or back-up telescopic fishing pole.
Quick Assembly
Extending the rod starts at the tip section! As shown in the image, extend each section while aligning the guides one section at a time. Simply extend the tip section until it stops, align the guides to the tip top guide and repeat with all sections. To collapse the telescopic fishing rod to its travel rod length, start at the bottom of the rod and collapse each section with a simple twist as you work your way to the tip of the fishing rod.

Reviews
I am giving this review for the 2 blackhawk II rods i bought (one baitcaster, one spincaster). I am giving them a 4/5 review only because i have not yet used them in action.. (i.e. actual fishing). I generally dont like to review something i bought but not yet used in true fashion (since it is wintertime/icefishing where i live). BUT..... i have tested them in my backyard with reels and casted each multiple times. Both rods feel good.....the action is a bit different as they are telescopic rods, but after breakdown, they get to 26" so i can get them in my standard luggage for travel which is their intention. They are light, snappy, and should be easy to throw all day long. For my next trip i matched each up with cheaper reels that i have, only in case my luggage gets lost/stolen (that never happens right?). anyway, so far i am happy with the price, and the product. hope this helps someone.
This is a great option for a rod that can be carried everyday in the truck for those unexpected opportunities without compromising quality and performance.
My hubby and son were so VERY HAPPY with their items! The staff was great with some of the questions I had. I would definite recommend this company to my friends.
The tip of the rod snapped my first day using it
I haven’t used it yet so I can’t give you an accurate and honest review. It looks like it will be perfect for what I want it for. Fishing high mountain lakes while hiking/ hunting the Rocky Mountains in Colorado this fall. It will pack in nicely on the side of my backpack. Check back with me in November and I’ll let you know how it all worked out.
