Lightweight Fishing Combo for Lakes, Rivers & Estuary

Whether you're fishing the shorelines of Lake Taupō or casting into clear-flowing streams, this compact combo offers everything you need. It features a 2.1m telescopic fishing rod paired with the versatile A2000 spinning reel. Designed for Kiwi anglers who want a simple and portable solution, this set is great for trout, perch, and light saltwater use in harbours.

Why This Combo Works So Well

The rod's collapsible design folds down to under 50 cm, making it easy to fit in backpacks or car boots. Made from durable carbon fibre, it balances lightness with solid casting strength. The A2000 reel weighs just 187 grams, offers smooth 5.2:1 gearing, and includes a strong 8 kg drag system – perfect for controlling active freshwater fish.

Recommended Line & Setup

This combo performs best with 8 to 10 lb monofilament or braid, offering a great balance of casting distance and fighting power. The reel's line capacity of 0.18 mm / 180 m gives you enough length to fish from lake shores or deeper river pools, without risking running out of line if a larger fish takes off. Go for clear or green line to blend in with local NZ water conditions.

Tip for Kiwi Anglers

Use 8 lb to 10lb clear line for calm lake waters, or green line for leafy rivers. This helps you stay stealthy without spooking fish like brown or rainbow trout. Keep a few softbaits, spinners, or small spoons handy – this combo is compatible with all.
