This Fishing Rod will BLOW YOUR MIND - Heres why!

- This has got to be the most versatile, unique and interesting fishing rod to have EVER been created. Lure, fly and bait with multiple different cast weights make this a truly one of a kind travel rod! Never before have so many options been available with just one set up. The X5 adventure combination is great for trout fishing, perch fishing, fly fishing, bait fishing, pike fishing, coarse fishing and even some sea fishing. As long as the cast weight is reasonably small, this rod can do it. This fishing rod also has a larger counterpart, the X5 max, which is essentially the same thing but bigger and more powerful designed for more heavy duty applications. If you know of a rod that you feel beats this in terms of versatility, let me know about it in the comments it would be great to see what else is out there!
If you want to buy this rod you can get 10% off using discount code AFUK10 if you go direct to the rigged and ready website here: riggedandready.net/ it even comes with a 2 year no questions asked guarantee! The rod is also available without the reels, in a smaller case.
I know the format was a little different here, and there was some quite random clips inserted at the end. Wanted to use some older footage of the rod that many of you wont have seen! It looks like i've lost some of the other footage of me using this rod, particularly for a bit more fly fishing so i'm sorry about that!
If you enjoyed this video please don't forget to like and subscribe, it really helps the channel!
Thanks for watching and hopefully i'll see you for the next video! - Розваги
Its a little bit of everything a fisherman needs when on the go Love it!
Definitely mate, jack of all trades!
I have this rod as well.. took it to Mexico and Belize - caught many trevally’s - bonefish - trumpetfish - big long toms or needlefish - small barracuda’s.
It’s good gear for what it is
That's great to hear! You should email some photos to the company 👍
Nice compilation and great review and description for the rod thanks for the upload George. Tight lines mate👏👏
Thanks mate, glad you liked it!
I love companies like this. The rod would be great for hiking or simply keeping in your car for that unplanned fishing session.
Yeah mate that's exactly what it's designed to be for!
10:56 I've also had some casts like that, catching perch, its an awesome feeling when you cast your bait and it almost straight away lands inside the fish' mouth
Always great fun when that happens isn't it!
awesome product!, perfect for a bug out bag being so small and compact. A real little life saver that piece of kit!
Glad you like the look of it, it's a really cool bit of kit!
After watching all your videos for the last month I picked up the x5 max, Predator and rr3000 this week, I travel a lot for work and these are absolutely perfect for the job!!
Thanks for watching mate! Good luck fishing on your travels, sounds like you're well geared up for it now 👍
@@adventurefishinguk geared up and watched all your content so im ready for anything now!
Excellent looking rod. Something else to add to my collection.
Definitely a worthy addition mate 👍
wow this rod system looks pretty cool... I'm definitely getting one to keep in the car
You should mate they're great!
Not just the quality but the memories too!!! 👍🏻
Yeah that rods definitely done a good shift for me in the past!
Looks a great rod mate,,nice vid and good to see you singing John Martin fishin blues when you caught ,,classic
Thanks mate! It's a great song 👍
What a great rod very versatile and perfect for adventures where you don't know what you are going to catch.
Very true mate, a great thing to chuck in the rucksack when you're out and about too!
The second brown trout colours is awesome 👌
Thanks mate!
Lovely bit of kit a must have
Great rod 👍
Having followed you since the sea trout sessions on the Wyre I’m really happy for you that your channel has nearly ten thousand other fishing nut cases watching you😂 With all respect I’ve been able to follow your progress from being very much a learner to an angler who has the confidence to fish for early big spring salmon on a river where most folk don’t start till June? So many angling channels are ruined by bad music ect and so I had a feeling you’d do ok.
I think you being involved with the business of using the same rods n tackle that you are advertising is really cool as the gear has never let you down. Just incredible what you can get now for such money and if you take away the brand name snobbery I’ll bet these rods are as good as anything
What a lovely comment 😁 I like the lack of dodgy music too!
Thanks mate, means a lot! Definitely come a long way over the last couple of years but hopefully it's just the beginning still! I still get flashbacks to that days fishing... 😂 And yeah the rods are fantastic for what they are. I wouldn't promote them if i didn't believe in them!
@Adventure Fishing UK good man it’s been a pleasure to watch you improve into a serious angler. Took me three years to take my first sea trout at night on the fly and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
Good to see you at the Big one last Saturday. We couldn’t make it back to pick up a Rod as we had too much to carry. I’ll use your discount code to get the X5 ready for our trip to Mexico. We will be doing a feature fishing video so keep an eye out for the Rigged and ready rod. Keep up the good work on the channel. David and Isaac from Family Adventures.
You'll have to send some pictures over mate would be great to see the rod in action over in Mexico. Thanks for watching the videos!
Decent rod,perfect for keeping in the boot of your car on days out,virtually covers any fishing 🎣 👍🏻
Hit the nail on the head there mate!
The fish rig 180 is looks pretty good but this is something different! need to get myself one of these! its already crazy how compact it is never mind that you can change it into a fly rod, bait fish rod and spinner. great video George and great catches!☺
Yeah this rod is a really interesting one, Nothing really that it can't do! Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching
Brilliant again pal well done
Thanks mate!
I have this rod I love it , such a machine for tarn fishing
Pretty much exactly what it was designed for mate!
Sweet, that rod is actually a pretty cool idea
Really cool isn't it, perfect for a travel rod 👍
That most definitely is an awesome little kit👌🏼
Great choice for a compact travel rod that's for sure 👍 thanks for watching!
@@adventurefishinguk ideal for exploring new waters where you have to cross bushes and plants to get there
One of my future plans is to do a long distance hike along the NW coast of Scotland, shore fishing for Mackerel and Bass but also some fly fishing for trout in highland streams. This rod looks ideal for such a trip!
Don't forget pollock and coalies from off the rocks!
@@leftmono1016 yeah you are right. Probably more likely than bass up that way!
@@johnmaskell5124 - I only really fish one mark off Barra but it’s a nice deep water channel teeming with pollock and coalies. I’ve had one wrasse about 4lb which was a nice bonus.
Dexter wedge type lures work best for me, mainly because they cast like bullets into the wind. Swap the treble for a single for less snagging 👍
That sounds like an amazing trip mate! And yeah I agree this rod would be perfect for the job
Why would you want to catch Bass? They don't taste all that great do they?
Ha-ha - back in the 60's I had a cane version of this, and it was brilliant!
My dad got it from the Gamage's store.
Nothing new here except the material!
A modernisation of an old idea for sure, and very well executed at that!
Looks a great rod to have in my camper so I am always ready to go
Pretty much exactly what it’s designed for mate!
Rigged and Ready what a cracking set up 👍
Great bit of kit mate 👍
Ace little rod that. Great video as usual🐟
Thanks mate! Great little bit of kit 👍
Just ordered that rod, thanks.
I'm sure you'll love it. Thanks for watching!
Very interesting video. Good job 👍
Thanks mate!
Great job as usual pal hope you and your family are all doing well take care and God bless
Thanks mate, hope you're well too!
Awesome love it
Great bit of kit isn't it!
great review subbed
Thanks for that mate, really appreciate it!
I loved your fishing song at 7:00 😂😂😂😂
Haha thank you, I love that song!
Amazing brown trout, stunning looking
Thanks mate, I thought so too! Definitely one of the better fish i've had
What an awesome product
Glad you like it!
Good looking bit of kit, lovely fish. The graying were superb.
Thanks mate! Yeah it's a really cool little rod
That looks like the set up I've been after for my father for his holidays ! And what a cracking pair off grayling..
Sounds perfect for the job mate! And thank you, can't wait for some grayling fishing this winter
@@adventurefishinguk mate forget the grayling! That rod with mepps no2 spiner tiped with rag for thin lipped mullet in Christchurch Harbour..... would be nuts 🤪.
@@rickphillips5098 I'd love to give that a go one day. Do you think the method would work in dirty water?
@@adventurefishinguk yes it will work . Fishing just down front clay pool in a dinghy where the river still running hard ,the water always has colour .. when I say tip the spinner ( use a peice off rag 1 inch long) and make sure it comes off the hook straight! Me and father have also had bass up too 8lb. And low water is best time, pushes all the fish into to channel . Hope this helps . I forgot we also have had so many sea trout .
I love youtube algorithms this is exactly what I'm looking for thankyou 👌
Lol you’re full of surprises. No way did I expect you to even know about Taj Mahal and the Blues🤯 The pool with chub is where you lost a big salmon. We used to stay on a site called something bridges next to the river Wyre and it’s where I first realised I wanted a fishing rod as kid after watching folk catch chub on there? Have you got your name down to join Prince Albert Angling club, as they have so many decent salmon and sea trout fishing in Cumbria inc the Cumbrian Esk at Ravenglass, the Irt, Eden, Lune and many others. Wow that Grayling is a real specimen and on a lure
Haha taj mahal fishing blues is an all time classic, second only to taj mahal Queen bee. I do have my name down to join prince albert yes 👍 and you're right it's the salmon pool! Not had any signs of salmon in there for quite some time now unfortunately
@Adventure Fishing UK lol so cool. Aren’t I silly, you’ve just gone through the roof now in my estimation🤯
Good music is important
coolest rod I've ever seen
It's definitely unique mate!
I can certainly agree about its versatility. I’ve personally used this fantastic rod to catch multiple mackerel with sabikis Sandeels, big flounder and even prime rainbow trout at a big reservoir. In my fishing endeavours I feel the smuggler Max is better for my style of fishing it’ll offer more power and castability but for small adventures and backpacking you cannot beat the little x5. Cracking video mate keep up the good work 👍
Thanks mate! Yeah fishing rods really don't get any more versatile than this. I love the smuggler max, I use it for most of my pike deadbaiting and a bit of sea fishing. Really powerful rod!
What a great rod ,, certainly something I need for camping ect,, loads of gear n the misses go's mad 🤪
Haha yeah that's one way to keep her happy! Could even get it in there without anyone noticing if you're careful 😂
Web site Sold out . Good job lots of people fishing. Definitely my next fishing rod. Easy to pack in anywhere. Hate having to fight my equipment through some bush to get to the waters edge. Hard enough just getting myself through it. Lol
They'll be back in stock soon mate! Glad you you like the look of it and i'm sure you won't be disappointed
This is what I needed during my 2 week holiday trip with a small car... Was expecting some predator boat fishing in Germany so brought a 2 pcs spinning rod that's 1.55m. But expensive tickets and regulations at the spot made me reconsider (you have to have a knife and fish killer baton thing on you for example) and so I ended up using the rod in my 2nd week from the bank at a pretty lake in Slovenia, where I blanked, since I could not throw any decent distance haha and I could not rent a boat there. So yeah, that's not gonna happen again, cause I ordered this one. 😁 Also fly fishing would be a first! Shipping to NL is £20 if anyone is interested in ordering. Pretty fair imo, the rod should be worth it.
It would be perfect for that! You'll have to get some cool pics of it over there for you are for Rigged and ready to use on their instagram. Would be great to hear how you get on too!
The fish killing thing is known as a priest.
Wow! Never saw one before. Well worth considering one of these,,, birthday present for myself???
Definitely worth it mate it's a great rod!
Wow cool!
Very interesting bit of kit isn't it!
@@adventurefishinguk it is mate yh
Tidy bit of kit mate .
Nice to see you catching with the kit and the full set ups .
Not sure about that dodgy singing 🤣 keep them coming mate 🤛🏻
Thanks mate! Yeah i'll be the first to admit the singing was a bit dodgy. I spend hours fishing, just so happened to be that cast when i hooked up 😂
@@adventurefishinguk must be a tune the fish liked then lol it wasn't that bad really mate now if you heard me singing your ears would bleed pmsl looking forward to the next upload 🤛🏻
6:53 I'd listen to this the whole day....😂
😂
Av used rigged and ready pike rod all this year but the sensitive tip av used for trout and pike I love the fight with light tackle av not even used the small tip yet av caught some nice pike and trout love ma wee rod and reel the quality is unreal and you can just put it in your bag easy to carry never let me down think al be getting the new one
Really glad you're enjoying the rod mate, it's great to hear!
@@adventurefishinguk don’t think al be using any other rod now a just got the fly rod to
I like this fishing 🎣 road.
Glad you like it mate!
I'm getting one of those for chucking in my suitcase
Good idea mate, perfect rod for that!
I really love this rod. I have yet to use it as a fly, mainly because I have no clue how to fly fish...
Great bit of kit isn't it! You should have a go fly fishing with it it's great fun. Can be tricky to learn though!
This is marvelous... 👌👌👌👍👍👍
Glad you like it!
@@adventurefishinguk Obviously Sir, you have brought some great and really cool + awesome stuff to us!!
☺😊☺😊
Interesting rod looking forward for the giveaway 👍
It definitely is! Thanks mate me too
Nice video
Thanks Alfie 👍
Man i have been thinking about designing this rod for ages I always wondered why nobody came out with an all-in-one rod like a multi tool of fishing rods. I suspect its because they would sell less rods... The design i had in mind has a few more bells and whistles like a small storage area in the handle for some light tackle, think John Rambo's survival knife. You know the one, with the compass in the butt, and perhaps some integrated led lights into the eyelets for setting up in the dark. Maybe im getting a little carried away now but we only live once right😂
Haha of all those ideas a small compass in the butt has to be the best!
Good fishing
Thanks Peter!
I like the Rigged and ready Rods they are small enough to go in your hand luggage at the airport
That's one of the things they were designed for mate 👍
Bought this rod from Rigged and Ready this week heading Wales with it weekend.
Enjoy Wales Mate 🐟
You'll have to let me know how you get on mate!
@@adventurefishinguk the 2 lakes were dead in Wales, but back home I’ve been hammering the fish with it just got a pile about a hour ago on canal.
Thinking of getting this outfit to take on my motorcycle when going to the lakes and when fell waking up there. Please can I ask what end tackle you use for the chub and grayling and brown trout if not fly etc thanks so much for sharing I have now subscribed 👍
It would be great for that! Thanks for subscribing 👍 I use light floats or weights for grayling and mostly spinners and lures for chub
Those flag salmons are beautiful!
Flag salmons? not heard that before!
@@adventurefishinguk Ah yeah hahahah here in the Netherlands they are called a 'vlagzalm' and 'vlag' translates to 'flag' and 'zalm' translates to 'salmon'😅 we used to have them here too, but nowadays they are insanely rare and kind of 'extinct' and I have actually only seen them on pictures, this is the first video I see where it is being catched!
Nice
Thanks mate!
For the serious fly angler I don’t think this would catch on but like you said for a hiking and travel outfit it’s actually perfect. Makes a difference to see someone really use and have faith in the products they’re advertising imo?
Yes seems like a jack of all trades, master of none scenario. Might not be the best at anything but good enough for everything. I like the idea of keeping this in a backpack or in my vehicle just for those impromptu fishing sessions.
You've hit the nail on the head there mate jack of all trades master of none 👍
A serious fly angler would have no problem at all catching fish on it mate! But would definitely notice the difference between that and an actual fly rod!
@Adventure Fishing UK yeah but you made sure to sell the rod in it’s context and let’s have it right here? You’ve had some tremendous fishing with these rods
Hi ordered the rigged and ready X5 adventure with Ur discount code thank you,it's for my partner as he has been watching Ur channel hope he likes it but wasn't sure wot line to get with it good u recommend any line for him to catch a pike lol 😂😂 thanks 👍
Good decision I'm sure he will love the rod! I'd reccomend the rigged and ready 33lb braid for pike fishing 👍
I want this rod !
It's a great bit of kit 👍
Wish I’d seen this before I went on holiday ! Can you get the rod only ?
You can yes, it's called the X5 adventure. It comes in a tube without the reel section
0:05 that’s what she said
Haha heard better I have to admit!
Does the rod come with backing and fly line for the fly set up?
It doesn't unfortunately mate!
Some discussion here with the hubby on the pronunciation of 'lure' he says 'loo-errrr' ( 2 syllables East Lancs accent) I say it like the word 'pure' ..... but that kind of sound like it has a 'y' in it......any comment? We both enjoyed this video! Great rod for an apocalypse situation 😂
I've not quite made my mind up on the pronunciation of the word funnily enough. It's been a thought occupying my mind for quite some time, I used to say loo-er but have naturally drifted more towards a combination of 'law' and 'ler'. Still unsure! And yes a great apocalypse fishing solution
I agree with your hubby 😉
:-) We have this debate often as I am a northerner living in the south. Down here they say Loorr dragging out both letters to make it sound posh like they do. For me it is Loo wa, I am from South Lakes
I’m from Oldham and call em Loo wers lol
Any idéa when the Smuggler 5 Handle will be back in stock?
I'm not completely sure, if you email andy@riggedandready.net and ask you'll get an answer there!
I’m in for the raffle
The raffle for this rod hasn't been released yet
A think you could catch fish in a bucket of piss what a great little rod al defo be getting one of those great video would be nice to see end tackle for each kind ov fish 👍👍👍👍👍
Haha thanks mate! Cracker of a rod isn’t it, make sure you use the code to get 10% off if you do pick one up will save you a tenner 👍 and I often talk about my set ups during or before every video so if you watch a few for different kinds of fishing you’ll see! Hope this helps
8min - is that reddish vale?
Don't think so mate, never heard of that!
Cool rod to keep in car. Ready for most fishing . what is price on that nice bundle ?
Cracking end a double hook up
👍👍👍😜🏴🦕🦄😁✌🤞
its £99 ish for the rod 2 reels and 2 year guarantee mate if you use the discount 👍
@@adventurefishinguk that is pretty good chears
You should make a bundle so you can just buy the x5 rod and the reel-case so you can use your own reels, i would buy that.
Good idea, I’ll suggest it and thanks for the input! I’m not sure if you checked out the website, but the rod is for sale individually too in a smaller tube style case so you can use it with your own reels 👍
@@adventurefishinguk I checked out the website, but as you said the x5 Max has a different case which wont fit the reels.
Another suggestion, start selling those cases seperatly aswell, i've been looking for a good case for my travel telescopic UL rod that fits and protects my reel to no avail, your case would fit perfectly.
@@adventurefishinguk Is the secondary "butt" included in "X5 ROD 2 REELS & CASE. 5 ROD OPTIONS-1 FISHING SET"?
The one being shown here ua-cam.com/video/Q7i30P-a0HI/v-deo.html&ab_channel=AdventureFishingUK 8 min 13 seconds in?
Can it be used for surf fishing
The bigger version of it the X5 max can
Mate that multi rod is a serious bit of me that how much is it did you say? I've got this feeder rod that is my favourite at the moment use it with a float, ledger, feeder and even chucked a massive spoon about to save the blank with a couple of pike the other day!
It's around £99 for the rod and both reels plus 2 year guarantee if you use the discount code mate 👍
Lovely looking set up that.
Are you involved with Rigged and Ready by any chance..been wondering for a while. Not in a bad way or anything I'm not trying to insinuate anything like pal. Just wondering of you work for them or if your just a product ambassador?
Good question and nicely asked!
Hi mate, I help manage their social media like instagram and youtube as well as being an ambassador of sorts! So to some extent I do work for them yes 👍
@@adventurefishinguk thankyou for the response. Was just curious that's all. Looking forward to the next vid.
OMG! It`s only £109!
Great price isn't it mate, especially with the 2 year guarantee
How did you get into making fishing videos and creating fishing content
Just decided one day it would be fun to see where it would take me mate. Thought it would be a good laugh and I was right!
How much is this set up looks very good
Only £99 for the rod two reels and the 2 year guarantee mate. If you use the 10% off code that is!
Can you float fish with this?
You can mate yes!
Im suprised at all the comments . Nobody found any flaws? Makes me somewhat suspicious.
There's one main flaw mate, and it's that in each set up it isn't as good as a specialist rod for that kind of fishing. It can do everything to a good standard, but it doesn't do anything very well if you get me!
Bring one to Florida and let's see if it handles real fish. It would be fine for little stuff but I wouldn't take it snook fishin' for big ones.
I think it would struggle mate!
im just thining uglystick can handle at big shark i saw other reviewer
They can mate!
What sort of weight of fish will this handle? Can you get a baitcaster handle with trigger for this rod? I fancy a rod that will handle both heavy and smaller species of fish.
Rigged and Ready do make a 'Predator Rod' that has a unique mini trigger that can be used with fixed spool OR baitcasting reels, has two lengths (1.80m and 2.20m) and will handle lure weights 0-30g and 20-80g.
£70ish?
I have many lure rods for both fixed spool and baitcaster reels but I'm very, very tempted by this rod.
Who ever has enough rods? 🙄
@@davefave4351 cheers dave I'll grab a look 👍
This rod can handle quite big fish mate but the x5 max, the bigger version, can handle larger! If you're into baitcasting as dave said you should have a look at the predator rod, or the fish rig max semi telescopic 👍
Don't blame you for being tempted dave, it's a great bit of kit!
❤❤❤
👍
What do we have 2 do for the give away I saw somet bout it but I forgot
The 10k giveaway hasn't been released yet mate
@@adventurefishinguk when does it
@@adventurefishinguk ah ok for subs cheers
How much ? Think I'll stick with my £25 combo from Amazon 😉
Tried a few of those before, for people that regularly fish they don't last long!
Is it costly? Are they available online?
They are available online on the rigged and ready website. They only cost £99 if you use code AFUK10 to get 10% off! That includes the rod, Case, two reels and 2 year guarantee
What's the price please George
With the discount it’s around £99 including the two reels and 2 year guarantee 👍
how does it cast as a fly rod? it looks kinda clunky to me
It casts better than you'd expect mate! It won't compete with a specialist fly rod any day of the week and you won't be able to cast as far, but it's perfectly fishable and gets the job done 👍
@@adventurefishinguk ta. im looking for a travel fly rod for a hiking/fishing/camping/trip in the next month or so, and was looking at the shakespeare ambassador to use alongside my telescopic spinning rod. this looks like it might do both and save a bit of weight, so i'll do a bit of digging and see if it fits my needs.
@@thetattooedangler there’s plenty of options on their website with similar rods mate. They’re a great company I’ve been involved with them for years now 👍
The 10% discount seems a little misleading and a marketing ploy sadly - the rods were advertised recently at £90 on the internet and now adjusted up to 110£ … so with 10% off still more than they were 🤦🏻♂️
Great video though - a genuine deal would have been good and I would have had one at 90£
Prices have recently gone up mate! Had this 10% code going for a year or so now it’s nothing new 👍 rising manufacturing costs have led to it unfortunately! But yeah I do get it £100 is quite a lot to spend 🎣
I’m from the United States, will you ship to me or is it only UK? I am very interested!
They do ship to the US yes, and may even have US distribution. I'm sure the website would give you a delivery time estimate
@@adventurefishinguk thank you very much
If im bringing 2 reels I better have 2 rods I can use at the same time
A good point, but this rod is more designed for people who fish on the move!
They're out of stock atm, I already looked 😪
I just had a look and on my computer it says it's in stock. Are you sure you checked the right rod mate?
@@adventurefishinguk I was looking at the wrong ones.. nice one 👍
How about stop yapping and get it out thats interesting
😂
Something is, or isn't, unique. An object can not be "extremely" unique.
good point!
Too many sections is my opinion..you simply do not have the feel that you would with a one piece....when it comes to that dream catch or money on the line why take the risk....I wouldn't
Can't disagree a 1 or 2 piece would feel a bit better to use, but with this rod that's not the intention! Someone hit the nail on the head with jack of all trades, but master of none
First
👍
....... Massive chub!......
Proceeds to land tiny chub......
Still nice tho guise
Also playing the fish is p?ss poor. Get it in, get it back out again. Then you won't have to recover it so long. Just saying like.
Everythings relative mate! At the time I caught that fish a couple of years ago it was the biggest chub i'd ever seen in person! Now maybe not, but there's no harm in a bit of enthusiasm
