  • Ancient Mariner fishing pole
Color: Red
Collapses for easy storage functions nicely made of good quality very durable wonderful for spurt of the moment fishing trips

  • Well made and pleasing to the eye.
Color: Green
I really like this rod for it's neon green color that makes it easy to see in low light. I also like the slim butt that makes easy it to extract rapidly from the rod holders and the solid build of the all metal reel seat. I purchased and installed a green Ancient Mariner 6000 reel and lime green braided line on this rod and it looks fantastic with excellent performance in hauling in the catfish that I've already caught with it so far. ... show more

  • False advertising.
Color: Red
The rod is very nice. But the only reason for me buying this, was the glow in the dark part. Definitely false advertising…..I left the rod outside all day, and at night nothing. it does not glow in the dark.
