I get the reason people would go for something like that, but it looks like a pile of junk, and I would avoid it personally.

Hi,
no never used one before but would be ideal for back packing around certain parts of the Prom line sealers or refuge,or up rivers during trout season.

Haven't used one but I've seen one similar used on IFish, he caught one but overall it was pretty useless, I'd probably just stick with a travel rod.

It's not going to do anything a normal travel rod can't do much better at the cost of only a tiny little inconvenience.

Google "instant fisherman review". That should put you off these things for life mate.
