Update

This is two years in the making. When I bought this rod the first time it came damaged from shipping (due to the carrier not to them) I sent a message that day the skipper crew got back to me the next day gave me instructions on how to return it, (great customer service). I return it and got back a new rod. I was skeptical at first ever since the first one broke in shipping, but I didn’t let it hold me back and ever since than it’s been a good rod I caught 2 red fish about a foot long, 1 black drum and many catch fish, love this rod, debating if I should get the 11 ft since I’m starting to surf fish or the 7 ft rod. I gave it a 3 star at first but now I’m changing it to a 5 star. I’m also glad they started doing the rod section replacements because accidents do happen.

Amazing travel rod!

Purchased this 9ft travel rod in October 2025, I used it to travel to Thailand and fish multiple locations in November. I love it…. And it works like a charm. Ive kept it in my suitcase in the box it was delivered in and I still use that wherever I travel. Currently in the Bay Area, CA and thought I’d right this review as it has suited me amazingly. Just used it for a great week of fishing. Handled 10-15lb bat rays wonderfully. Highly recommend!

Awesome Rod

The staff was super helpful. I receive the rod quickly and when I thought there was an issue they were very helpful and understanding. The rod itself is amazing and easy to put together.

9’2 Hybrid Travel Rod

Very positive, handles well, light weight, durable and easy to assemble.

Description

Crafted with premium carbon fiber, our 9’2″Hybrid Travel Fishing Rod bridges the gap between inshore precision and surf power. It’s the one-rod solution when you want to cover a wide range of fishing environments.  Compact, lightweight, and powerful, this rod is designed to give you the freedom to fish anywhere—whether it’s the beach, pier, jetty or inshore rivers, creeks and under bridges, this rod is perfect for variety.

At 9’2”, this full-sized hybrid rod breaks down into 5 travel-friendly pieces, packing to just 2 feet for easy transport. Despite its portability, it delivers serious performance: lightweight and sensitive enough to detect subtle bites, yet strong enough to battle the fish that count.

As seen on the Hey Skipper Fishing channel, our specialty travel fishing rod was designed by Brendon to represent ULTIMATE FREEDOM. Whether you’re flying to paradise or driving down the coast, it sets up fast, travels light, and is always ready to fish when you are.

Key Features

  • Premium Carbon Fiber – lightweight, sensitive, and incredibly strong.
  • 9’2” Length, 5-Piece Design – packs down to just 2 feet for easy travel.
  • Hybrid Versatility – casts long distances for surf fishing but still sensitive for inshore lures.
  • Travel Ready – compact, durable, and designed to fish anywhere in the world.

Need help deciding which rod to get? 

The Hybrid Travel Rod (9’2”) is your answer when casting distance matters most. Its extra length gives you the casting reach to hit sandbars and deeper channels, while the added backbone lets you take on bigger fish in surf or open water.

The Inshore Travel Rod (7’6”) is built for anglers who need finesse and precision. Its shorter length makes it ideal for  working lures around the first trough on the beach, on docks, mangroves, bridges, and other tight spots where accuracy and sensitivity are key. Lightweight and easy to cast all day, it’s the perfect choice when you want to feel every subtle bite and outsmart fish up close.

Together, the Inshore and Hybrid rods cover every scenario you might encounter, making them the perfect travel companions for anglers who want to be ready for anything.
