I am in the need for a new rod and reel and was considering going with
a telescope rod. I am only considering the telescope rod because I
can back it in my pack when I go mountain biking, kayaking, hiking,
etc with out having to worry about space.

I am specifically considering this type of rod because of the remote,
untouched lakes I will be in and around this summer. How well do these
rods compare to a normal 6' two piece rod?
Will I be disapointed trying to case from shore with one of these
rods?

Look at some 4 piece pack rods before you spend $ on a telescopic rod.
