Color: Smuggler 7
This is really great rod. I brought it with me to Hawaii and was easily able to store the tube inside my carry-on luggage (Ebags TLS Mother Lode). It is a moderate/medium action rod with medium power. I was able to really bomb 3/8oz sinkers as well as casting bubbles whipping for Papio (trevally) and other fish. The rod is a bit forward-heavy so adding counterweights might not be a bad idea. I paired it with a Daiwa Fuego LT 3000 and it cast like a dream - I could get super far casts on it and the split grip makes it easy to grab for extra leverage. I found that I had to hold the rod higher up (above the grip) at times since I would get fatigued after a while with it being so forward-heavy. I figure that's a trade-off with multi-section rods though. One minor issue/concern with the QC - the first rod I received had a guide tip where some of the metal was bent out of shape, and a few of the guides were bent out as well. I immediately packed it up and sent it back for an exchange. The replacement rod was much better but I noticed the guides weren't 100% centered. More attention/detail could be put into the guide wrapping job on these. It also would be nice if there were a hook-keeper. The ferrules and joints of some of the section would come loose and twist around after prolonged periods casting. Several times the tip flew off but fortunately I never lost it. I wasn't sure what to expect with this rod but it's a really nice pack rod for travel and packs down more compact than any other rod I've seen. I do wish they had one in the same length (or even longer) that was slightly lighter maybe like an ML. This is a great all-around rod though. EDIT: I just realized this rod actually measures right around 8'6 - so it's actually longer than advertised lol. EDIT #2 (11/4/2020): Since writing/updating this review, I noticed that there were additional pieces/tips added to this rod so out of curiosity on how I could purchase the additional tips I emailed the company and got in touch with the owner, Andy. Andy was kind enough to send a couple tips out to me on his own dime! I just got them today and am excited to give them a shot (I fish the surf in SoCal primarily). With the heavier/shorter tip I plan to bait and wait with 2-4oz pyramid sinkers and hi-lo rig for the rockier areas/beaches. The lighter tip I'm curious to try c-rigging with grubs/Gulp Camo Sandworms but also fishing jerkbaits and dropshotting even. I am compelled to upgrade this review to 5 stars due to the outstanding customer service. And I'm already planning on buying the X5 Max sometime in the near future. Thanks Andy!

I bought this last summer and had the chance to fly to Florida with it. It’s really an all terrain type of rod. I tossed a 2500 series on it and to my surprise it did great. With as many section as it has, I was worried it would come apart. But nope! It with held very well and stayed intact every cast. No more buying a new rod everytime I go on vacation!

Perfect to pack in a suitcase! Liked especially the joints. Haven't used it yet, but the action seems good, and the two tops are a plus. Pricy, but all good rods are.......

This is the second travel pole I've ever bought and I like it. My Kingswell telescopic pole (which I loved) snapped a few weeks ago so I checked out a bunch of videos and read a ton of reviews and settled on the Smuggler 7. I have never heard of this company but it sounded interesting and I need a travel pole so I bought it. I am mainly using it for whipping. Casting amd retrieving plastic grubs and small plugs. I live in Hawaii and only fish saltwater. I travel to Japan yearly and this pole will be coming with me. I also go on inter island trips in Hawaii so it's prefect for that. Main target fish = omilu (blue fin trevally) This is my honest review: Quality - not bad but not superb. It's a travel pole and probably shouldn't be your go to everyday pole but it seems built pretty well at first glance. Size- it breaks down very small for the size of the pole. It's breaks down smaller than my Kingswell and can fit in a normal backpack. This is a plus for sure. Strength - it claims medium and that's accurate. It comes with two tips. I actually prefer the shorter tip for what I use the pole for so far. Of you're gonna use lead, feels like 1.5 oz. would be about right. I use a bubble floater that fills with water to add weight when whipping. It's whippy yet feels like it has enough backbone to handle around a 5 pound omilu. They rip hard and are fighters. Balance - for whipping, the reel seat is close to the butt end which feels short, making it a little harder to jig while retrieving. This is probably because if it was longer, it would affect the breakdown size so it's give and take. Case - solid protective travel case with slots for each individual piece. Problem: my bottom guide section of the pole came with the guide bent upwards past a 45 degree angle when I first received it. I bent it back with my hand and it was fine. This created a bigger problem though. Now that section doesn't fit into it's section of the carrying case. Seems like the manufacturer bent it just for that exact reason. There is no way to fit it without bending it back and forth everytime you use the pole which doesn't make sense. The only way to fix the problem would be to cut the material in the case so that that pole section will fit. I guess I'll have to do that if their customer service can't fix the problem. Warranty/Customer Service - they seem to have a lot of pride in their customer service. I emailed Rigged and Ready about the case problem along with a picture to explain. They returned my email within hours which was extremely impressive. They are sending me a new bottom guide section piece and hopefully this one fits into the case properly. Still, I'm not sure how it will since the section of the case is still the same size. I can update more when it arrives. Fishing - so I tried it twice already and luckily hooked up to a nice sized omilu on the second time out. I was extremely impressed on how the smuggler 7 handled the fight. There were no problems and it was totally solid. Landed my first fish on it that was about 2 lbs. Made some great sashimi for my family! The upload function wasn't working so I'll try to attach a pic of the omilu later. My verdict so far is that the Smuggler 7 is definitely worth the money as a solid travel pole. So far, the company seems legit with their no questions asked warranty and their customer service has been more than you'd expect from a fishing company. The only problem is the case right now. A travel pole should fit into it's case without customers having to modify the case from the manufacturer to make it fit. I'll cut it if I have to but I don't want to. Like the Kingswell rod review, I will add updates. That pole lasted 4 years before it snapped on the cast. I hoped the Rigged and Ready does better than that. So far I really like the feel of the Smuggler 7.

I bought this rod for my son to take on a salmon fishing trip to Alaska with his grandfather. Trip of a life time! Sadly, it snapped within the first hour of the first day with his very first salmon on the line! It came very highly recommended too. It packed well for travel, just didn’t last long to do the job.

Love this rod and co. Great feel and perfect for travel and stuffing in a backpack with the case it comes in. We did a no-no and heaved up a large fish off San Diego at an impossible angle which put too much strain on the tip (was still worth it). Riggy helped us out super fast and got us a replacement part asap. Will definitely buy here again.

Product came in awesome hard shell case. Looked amazing and exactly as I thought it would be. But to my surprise the second section was broken. Cracked right in two. Not sure how this could have happened in the hard case? During shipping or packing in the factory? I guess no fishing for me on my vacation.
