    Is there such a thing as 2 piece 6'6" trolling rods?

    I'm thinking about buying fishing kites to fish off of the beach. I would use penn senator reels but I can only get 2 piece rods shipped to Brazil... is there such a thing as 6'6 two piece trolling rods for senator reels or should I sit in a corner and start crying?

    Jer the 2 piece may be refering to the butt section being a uni-butt and the rod actually is seperate from the butt? I am sure the rod builders here should be able to get you hooked up.

    Whats the maximum package length you can receive?

    Are you going to use the "trolling" rod only for the kite, with the baited line run from another rod? If so, you can use a very short rod like 3'6 (1.2 meters )

    I think I would use 30lb mono line (on the rod with baited line) and this line on the kite fishing rod

    Melton's has kite rods, maybe Tracey can check if one would fit in a 42" tube. Or you might be able to find one with a removable butt. Or you can have Paul build one that will fit your exact requirements.

    Cheapest solution - run the kite off a coil of string to test your setup. All the kite rod and reel does is make it easier to deploy and retrieve. You can use the rod you have for the bait rod. You will need a release clip (or clothespin) for the baited line.

    Planning on taking those catfish for a ride?
