Daiwa Presso Travel Spinning Rod | 4-Piece | Ultralight | 24" Collapsed | 5'6"–7' | Trout & Finesse

The Daiwa Presso Travel Spinning Rod is Daiwa’s dedicated ultralight travel spinning rod — built for anglers who refuse to leave their fishing gear behind on camping trips, backpacking adventures, or road trips. The 4-piece design collapses to just 24" for easy storage in a pack, vehicle, or luggage, while the ultralight fast action blank delivers the sensitivity and responsiveness needed for trout, panfish, and finesse freshwater fishing. 

Key Features

• 4-Piece Travel Design — 24" Collapsed — Breaks down into 4 equal sections that collapse to just 24" for storage; fits in a backpack, luggage, or behind a vehicle seat without a rod tube; purpose-built for anglers who want a capable ultralight rod that goes anywhere without the bulk of a full-length rod.
• Ultralight (UL) Fast Action Blank — Ultralight power rating for light lures and light line; fast action taper concentrates flex in the upper third of the blank for maximum sensitivity and quick hooksets on light-biting trout and panfish; delivers the rod feel of a full-length ultralight rod in a 4-piece travel format.
• Versatile Lure & Line Range — 5'6" and 6'0" models rated for 1/32–1/4 oz lures and 1–6 lb line for the lightest ultralight presentations; 6'6" and 7' models rated for 1/32–3/8 oz lures and 2–8 lb line for slightly heavier finesse applications and larger trout water.
• Four Lengths for Different Water — 5'6" for tight stream and creek fishing where shorter rods provide better casting accuracy in confined spaces; 6'0" for versatile stream and small lake use; 6'6" and 7' for open water, larger rivers, and situations where additional casting distance is needed.
• Pair with a 500–1000 Size Reel — Designed to be paired with a 500 or 1000 size ultralight spinning reel on 2–4 lb mono or light braid; the compact reel and rod combination fits easily in a pack for true go-anywhere ultralight fishing capability.
