Any Bikers who like fishing on tour ?

Love camping up beside the water, was thinking about compact fishing kit to pass some time and maybe something tasty for the pan.

When looking for really compact fishing kit, I see stuff like this

Appreciate any recommendations you might have, I've never tried any of the ultra compact rods or reels, are they any good?

I'm not after big fish, a 1lb trout would be in the heavenly scale for me.

For that money I expect the reel will be abysmal, the rod passable. I would be tempted to bin the reel and get something a bit more reliable, I just got a Mitchell 300 from ebay for a tenner.

Looks like a POS. I do like a bit fishing though and may be fishing tackle snob

I take a telescopic carbon rod, a small but tidy reel and a few bits and pieces (floats, weights, hooks, disgorger etc) in a small plastic box when I go camping. Weighs little, takes hardly any space. Buy or dig bait as you go.

to the points made, but is there any rod\reel setup that is really tiny and fairly dependable?

I wouldn't expect the reel to be fit for spinning, just dependable to reel in little fishy on float or ledger tackle.

£30.00 budget, can you get something tiny and good for that ?

These would work for a few trips. Big fish and/or salt water and watch it all fall apart in front of your eyes. Just the same as a cheap Chinese motorcycle will work...for a while.
