Will you be teaching in north Texas later this year?
How did these two fishing rods do in your back back. How did you pack it? Inside? Outside? Do they have bags to enclose them in? These look like really nice setups.
Keep up the good work corporal I know only a few people that watch doesn't inspire you to do much on here but you do teach those that do watch important information about survival and key techniques to thrive. I support you, keep up the good work.
Perfect timing as I was just thinking about looking into some compacts. Thanks for all the great work and time you spend making these videos for us all to enjoy.
@jcllings try this vid ua-cam.com/video/2MR6JTZ42QM/v-deo.html
*I like the way it feels **enjoyable.fishing** recommend and cast, time will tell I only used it once but it seems to work well....*
30'!!! That is outstanding!
Haha yeah he threw me off with that. Should edit the video lol!!
Lmao
I've had the Emmrod system for about a decade. Hands down the most versatile out there. Virtually indestructible, they have many different styles and configurations. I've used reels from ultra light to a 4000 series. Fresh and salt water. Panfish to Snook! This year I'm focusing on land a Bull redfish on it!
I have an Emrod Kayak version for 10 years plus. Friends laugh but it never broke and I caught more fish in boat and shore than most. Use 40lbs higher braided line and you will amaze anyone!
"Dope?"
You learned a new word.
*OUTSTANDING!*
Awesome video! Nothing like fishing a mountain lake. Just doesn't get any more peaceful than that.
Winner, winner fish for dinner 👍😋
For my backpack I use a Walmart ice fishing pole , works well ... great for bass, pike , trout
I like the fact that you're very thorough in all your videos.. great job .. keep on keeping on !
Good vid and comparison. For years, I used an old fashioned CB antenna as a backpacking fishing rod. The spring provided just the right "give" and the long base was simple to tape a reel on. I removed the end eye from an older broken rod and used it on the tip of the antenna. It made a good, light, very packable rod and reel. I caught many fish on that ultralight rig -- including an 5 lb. catfish.
I'm surprised you didn't show how the Emmrod is broken down and stored. I use to sell them and that was one of the neat tricks to show for getting a sale. People didn't think the rod tip came out. Twist, pull out, reverse tip and it slides on making it even smaller in length to fit inside a backpack or even your pants pocket depending on its size. Expensive, yes. However it's one of those things you'll be glad you spent the extra money on.
Hard to beat those Super-Dupers! Been doing the job for me on trout for about 55 years! Now to saute in a little butter, yum!
It is January and 12F. This video made me dream of warmer times and wild fishing. Thanks
I received an Emmrod several years ago as a gift from my wife, it quickly became my favorite fishing rod to take everywhere from fresh water to salt water fishing and it is very high quality. Thank you again for an excellent video!
Nice! Didn't know these even existed. I mostly fish in salt water. This was great. Thanks for the video.
.... nice rainbows. I'm sticking to my old pack rods and reels.
I’ve been using the emmrod for about 2 years, I paired it up with the zebco 33. Bomb proof great video
I have had the Emmrod fishing pole and reel for many years! Good little rod and does not take up too much space!
Man you got the life to live in the great outdoors.
Fantastic reviews. Thank you. I grew up in Colorado. Been a long time since I’ve been trout fishing.
Come to Vancouver Island in Canada...they are everywhere up here.
Beautiful peaceful place. Nice fishing rods and awesome fishing there.
I have had the Emmrod for a few years, and LOVE it. However, I recommend the spin-cast version. Spinning reels are nicer, but when jamming in a backpack, the bail can get bent or broken. So you either need to keep the reel in a case of some kind, or just get a more sturdy reel. The spincast version allows for the reel handle to be easily removed, and then the whole thing goes into a pack without worry of breaking.
Also, Diawa makes the "Mini-Spin." The rod breaks down into five pieces, and the whole thing (including reel) goes into a small plastic case. It is nicer to fish with, but takes more effort to put together or take apart.
Finally comfortable casting the pocket combo for distance.. love the pole
Two nice mini poles. That scenery was beautiful. I've been to AZ but I want to go more north and see some stuff with trees. Great review.
I have a couple Emmrods. They are particularly good for fishing from a canoe when there are a lot of overhanging trees. There is actually a "slingshot" technique you can use to shoot your lure in low. I also use a Ronco Pocket Fisherman just for laughs - it's actually pretty decent.
Thank u for the review! I just got an emmrod for my back pack
I really like how in depth your reviews are. And as well that you have all the great gear on your site! Thank you for making these vids they make sure by the end of the video if your paying attention you can make sh*t happen....very informative. Cheers,Jeremy.
Great video, myself I have done research into the Emmrod setup, and though yes it is more expensive but is more versatile in with what you catch. They say they can catch up to 25 lb fish on the heavy action rod. That system along with appropriate reels and line weights, and of course a variety of tackle, you could have a setup that will bring in everything from the smallest bluegill to the biggest largemouth Bass. That versatility makes Emmrod a winner.
I have an Emrod with 2 different attachments and 2 reels, catch everything from Rock Cod, Coral Trout and anything else on the reef. Good fishing in North Queensland.
Too sweet! You got some pretty ones! That looked like a great spot to lay back and enjoy. Thank you for sharing a part of your day with us!
My favorite rod is the Eagle Claw Pack Rod. It comes in it's own aluminum tube with a screw on cap and a sock to put all the rod parts in. The great part about the Eagle Claw rod is that with the bottom piece, you can put it on either way. One way is for a fly fishing reel, the other way I use a bait casting reel. Spinning reels don't work well at all as all the eyelets are too small for the loops the spinning reels make coming off the reell spool when casting.
I think I've go 5 of those Eagle clay rod kits now. I find them at yard sale once in a while. I see the aluminum tube first, pick it up and shake it a little which tells me whether or not the 4 rod pieces are in there. If I hear that lovely sound, I take he parts out and check out the eyelets. Eyelets can be replaced fairly easily. Check the rod itself and see if there are any cracks.
I've picked these up for $5-20. Walk away with a big smile on my face.
I keep one with each vehicle and also with my CamelBak Muleso it's always with me when I'm going for a hike.
I've had an Emmrod Original for over 6 years. Sturdy piece of kit that never disappoints. I use a Cabela's, 10:1 ratio spin caster with Spiyderwire 6lbs test. Bomb proof. Good video.
These things are coming one in leaps and bounds. Nice to see quality kit beginning to appear
Outstanding thanks Corporal, Diggin the beard
Let me just say that I respect and appreciate your service in the military thank you. I have watched a couple of your videos where you are discussing the problems you are having with UA-cam. I had always watched what I was interested, wanting to learn, in and not what was entertaining. That is how I came to subscribe to your channel. I feel you are one of the best teachers on UA-cam, and I learn easily from you.
After listening to you talk about UA-cam supporting some channels more then others I was shocked at myself for being so gullible. I started paying attention to how many commercials were posted on the videos that I watch, and how many times I see certain videos come up on UA-cam posts. I have always wondered how some channels have 100,000 views when just posted and others have a few. Everything I heard you say was in fact correct. Therefore I have decided to support your channel more ie entertainment type videos. I am a retired nurse starting to prep and bushcraft. Even though I have camped my entire life. I would really like to learn more about fishing. Thanks again. 👍🏻
This is awesome as I have been checking out compact rods for canoe trips and easy portaging .Ill go check out your Amazon list for sure.
Such a beautiful place to be. Add a pole and it's heaven. Thank you
Some beautiful trout you pulled from those waters with those poles.
Nice video.
I have always used a Diawa Minicast system. The original case they came in was much better than the current one.
Good stuff. I picked up a telescopic Shakespeare rod around 5 years ago for cheap,weighs nearly nothing.Collapses to about 6" and well worth it.The all metal Rod has been around a long time,did not know that they made them that size.Have a full sized closed face from the 50s.As always,Thank's for sharing brother!
Telescopic rods are awesome we use them to catch bluegill down here in Texas at the river..rather small fish.. about the size of your hand but 3 or 4 of those little guys over a camp fire will keep you from going hungry
I think the mrod is the best choice steel pipe less likely to be broken also would work great for ice fishing
My grandfather told me god rest his soul, when i was about 12 years old. ( sitting and wishing does not improve your fate, god provides the fishys but you gota dig your own bait. Also (when nothing else works. a worm always will.) First is you gota work for things in life and second, if all tackle in your box doesn't work a real worm does haha. Thanks for another great video !
Great video as always. Wish fishing rods and reels increasingly shedding weight as the years go by, there is very little reason NOT to carry some type of fishing gear near water. I opted for a telescopic rod to suit my Alvey sidecast (not sure if These are very wellknown in America) but these 2 spin rod/reel combos that you demonstrate here are an extremely easy and effective way of having a little bit of fun, stress relief and catching yourself a meal or 2 or 3, and possibly saving your life :) I would be all the more poorer in life for not having learnt how to fish :) TY Corporals Corner!
Man, that Super Duper was hammering them! Great review of two cool products, thanks!
As always, great video! Im talkin biscuts and gravy great! Very informative and awesome footage! Keep doin whatcha doin!
Some good looking territory there CC nice poles too
Some More Ideas:
Eagle Claw Packit 4 piece
Zebco Dock Demon
Shakespeare Ugly Stick Dock Runner
Eagle claw packet telescoping
I have the Eagle Claw Packit 4 piece rod paired with a Shakespeare Intrepid 20 ultralight and it has served me very well.
Yes, there is also Penfishingrods.com. Personally I use a 7 piece, 7 foot Crystal River spin/fly combo and that Uglystik Dock Runner.
Good video. I love the Super Duper for Trout. I was disappointed that you handled the trout and threw them back. I was taught that if you handle them (trout) with your hands, you remove some of their protective coating so you need to keep them. Just my two cents.
You were probably taught that because it's a really good attitude to have about handling the fish. If your gentle and careful you can pick up a trout and release it without harm, but there's nothing wrong with your way of thinking about it
The area around you is amazing!!! Love those Rod's light and handy !! Blessings 🙏
What an absolute beautiful place to go fishing.
Thanks for the video!
I also spend time in the Rockies, i bought a "Ugly stick" combo for $70, it works well also. 3 piece rod and spinning reel, with a nice carry bag. That's small enough to fit in a big backpack, or lash it...
I'm not going to run right out and buy one of these, but it is good to have the info and insight you provide. I will suggest it to other 'packers who could appreciate this product in their adventures.
Thank you for what you do, CPL. Keep up the good work 👍🍻
Those are some nice trout!
Great video Shawn as always. They sent it ,I watched it again, lol I think I watched it couple times when it came out, I'll like it as many times as it will allow me to.
Excellent gear review, beautiful scenery and good to see you out enjoying the good life.
Both look like nice piece of gear. That's for sharing
Ahaha Crazy rod !!
Ultralight yes!
Soludos from Brazil🌲🎣🎥
You always look like you are having a good time on your videos. Thanks for another great gear video.
The beard is better then the soul patch.
nice setups my favorite is my 30inch ice fishing rod by ugly stick med lite action ultra lite reel .. Its a workhorse..
Awesome fishing combination
Didn't know you did a review on these .just got a emmrod great pole .and like you said great backcountry rod
Thanks for the knowledge corporal
Looks like something to keep in the car, next to my get home bag.
That's a pretty pristine picture of the mountains.
Super-Duper video CC!
Super Duper is a time tested lure. Little Cleos work well too but you must use a high quality swivel or they will twist your line. The bronze color seem best for stained water. Hope to do a little back country fishing trip soon myself. This vid got the juices flowing. Thanks.
When will you get to the Sierras?
I like those rods but prefer my setup.
6.5 ft telescopic rod and some heavy duty elastics to determine length.
I wrap from the back of the reel up the back spine and around the eyelets from both sides of elastic.
Works great.
Pole can be 3ft to 6.5 ft and still collapses.
25 bucks for decent setup minus lures.
i do the same.
THIS is the rod I was looking for! Emmrod!
First of all;
I am absolutely thrilled that you used a Super-Duper as a lure.
I was born in 1964, and haven't heard that name in decades. Bravo!
Secondly:
I like the (guessing at the spelling) M-Rod design, because you have a choice of rod strength. You're right about the cost versus options evaluation.
One of my all time favorites is a solid pan-sized rainbow.
However, if I can swap the rig out to land a decent Steelhead, I'm all in.
Especially, for an ultralight rig.
P.S.
Nice camera work.
Carry on ...
30 feet
"What makes these better than any cheap collapsing pole? Oh, 30 feet? Okay, this I have to see-- oh. Never mind."
30 feet? No need for surf fishing rods, just pull this baby all the way out and drop that baby in!
Great size for backpacking.Love the wire spring rod If I was backpacking I would probably consider purchasing. Sure beats my Eagle Claw 4 piece take down spin/fly outfit. I lone my Fenwick ultralight spin rods (one piece and two piece) using a variety of mini spinning reels (50+ y/o Mitchell 308, a Penn, and an Okuma)and my cortland 4 weight fly rod.
The first combo is well worth it!
Great demo and drills Corp. Nice looking kit, the second unit was funky as.
Try out the Kastking Blackhawk 2 collapsible pole similar weights and full length with some interesting features. Is my favorite rod for most uses.
Wetting your hands, before you hold your catch, greatly improves the fish's chances for survival, should you decide to throw it back.
I cant believe people still think those myths are true lol.
Any fish that has died after being released will not have been from handling the fish...
Commercial fisheries, fisherman and pet stores have been doing it years. It does not harm the fish.
It's a myth.
@@lackofdubs5975It’s not a myth. The slimy skin of a trout, will get hurt, if You don’t get wet hands. Other fish’s shelled skin, are more robust.
Heads up Cpl, bass pro shops has a travel rod available for less than $100 named Fish Eagle. It’s a 4 piece rod that ends up 7 ft light action. It comes with a very stiff travel tube and a roll up sleeve all pieces fit into and then slide into the tube for protection.
The fish eagle rod series has become my favorite fishing rods and personally I rank them at the lower end of the upper crust. St Croix type etc.
Paired with a Mitchell 300 or 308 they are pretty hard to beat and the tube straps nicely to my back pack.
308 One of the best ever made !!
Great video can't wait to get one! I've been looking for a great micro set up. Do you think it would fit in a 3 or 4 inch pvc pipe? Oh and you cracked me up when you said that the first rod extended to 30 feet.
Thanks for showing us new Gadgets ...cant get enough from Survival Bushcraft and Millitary Stuff including every kind of Weapons
Have to buy it thank U 👍
I think I like the first fishing pole that you showed they were both really cool and then the second one I do like the fact that you can change out your pools but this really these are really cool .
Those little steinhausers are pretty nice. I have the compact one that you have in the video and I have their full size one with the extending handle at the bottom as well. Caught a decent sized pike on the full size one, I was pretty impressed
Thanks bro I've been looking for some backpack Fishing Poles
Love it!! Been looking at rods for backpacking. Thank you. Love your channel.
A catch a cook with fish or using a trap to catch a prey and cook out would be super Kool corporal!!
very nice fishing setups there. i have a similiar set up as the m-rod, that i purchased 20 yrs ago at wally world. it had a zebco reel that i swapped for an open face reel from Shakespeare. i have caught a lot of trout with it. i'm not giving it up, but that m-rod is very tempting. nice thing about the m-rod, 20-30 yrs from now it will still look and work like new.
As always, very informative and I have always loved watching your videos. Great reviews Kelly
WOW. 8' 37" Absolutely beautiful scenery! So pristine looking. Rods not half bad either Corporal! Nice trout too! Cheers for that, Salute...
Very good this fishing place Congratulations, very similar where I fish here in *Brazil.*
Hug!!!👍🎣🐟🐠😉
Sweet. Looks like the m-rod would make a good setup for ice as well.
Thanks again Sir, enjoy watching you catch those bad boys, still in shock and aw that you read your comments and engage your audience with comments and likes.... Salute Sir 0>
Sir? Do you see butter bars! Well do you? 13 weeks and you still don't know what rank iam?
Lol, Sorry no idea man, wasnt in military but have alot of respect for them soldiers, both grandparents were in ww2 grandpa mcedwards was queens own rifles and other grandpa was a captain in the RAF, being Canadian we dont fight much unless we have too, peace and respect good Sir
@@billmcedwards1065 LOL!
Great video, very informative! Thank you for your service!
That is happiness in a hot pan of butter and mixed with some avacado salsa and corn tortilla tacos... Yep...
SEN SATIONAL! That was awesome. been a long time since I had a good spot for fresh trout. Roll them dudes in some flour and corn meal with a little salt and pepper. Fry 'em up in some peanut oil.... Backwoods feast for sure! Thanks for sharing bro! Oh yeah, the fishing rods were cool too!!
i used to fly fish and i would always take a telescoping spinning rod along with me in my pack for deep water fishing. the one i have now cost 30$ and i think i got it at walmart. they are a little longer than the ones you show here but they are still easy to pack or attach to the outside and keep the reel inside.
Thanks for just getting me totally excited. I fly out next week to Denver. Then spending the next week and half exploring the mountains, up into WY and Medicine Bow NF. Skipping the fishing and focusing on small game hunting.
Great rods, thanks for the offer, beautiful fishing area you have chosen, best regards
Since River Cane ( looks just like Bamboo except with a crease on one side) grows abundantly where I live, I just have a basic fishing kit with a spool of line, some lead sinkers, bobs ( I use corks ), hooks, and steel leader line ( okay, I also have a little, air/water tight tube of blood dough balls and some lures), as Catfish, Bass, Perch, and tons more, etc...... are very abundant way up here in the rural Great Smokies, and you can go in the woods, find any creek/stream/river and look under rocks for Crawdads [Cray fish]), and every pond is about sure to be brimming with Trout, Bass, and lots more. I just make a cane pole, and pass the line on top of a finger and when I feel a tug I gently bring him in, give him slack, bring in more, you know how you do. Been doing this since I was a kid, along with hunting and tracking, plus taught gun handling, maintenance, how to hit and get what I aim for, etc........ starting very young, and I had a great teacher ( my Grandaddy, a WW2 combat Marine). I think I stand a good chance of wilderness survival, especially when I grew up learning wood/bush craft, and I'm an experienced street fighter ( grew up white in a 76% black city where you better know how to fight,spending my summers here in the rural mountains hunting and tracking with my friends here). Like your videos CPL Kelly, and thank you for your service, Semper Fi (you are U.S.M.C. , IIRC , right? ). Blessings to all our brave Soldiers, Marines, Sailors, Airmen, National Guardsmen, Coast Guardsmen, Fire Fighters, and those in law enforcement who are GOOD cops ( who seem to be in the minority nowadays, but they are there I promise, and they have helped me, even defending me from the bad cops and standing up for me in court. It's too bad that the majority [at least a great many] ruin peoples' perception of cops, leaving the good ones with a thankless, difficult, and dangerous job and people treating them like " leave me alone until I need you and then you better be right there. Poor good cops), and, when they're bad they're really bad, when they're good and cool, they're really good, so bless the good LEO, they should set the example for others to follow
Wish there were two LIKE BUTTONS. Liked seeing those rods in action that much! SWEET video!
Been looking at the Emmrod for a while. Think you sold me on it. Thanks for another great video.
