Does this rod have the wood reel seat or the metal reel seat like pictured.

I have the 6'6" 3/4wt as well as the 7' and 8' 5/6 wt rods. All of mine have wood reel seats.

Mine was wood. It is an amazing stick for the $. I've casted $700 fiberglass noodles that weren't as nice as this. I picked it up on a whim because it was so cheap. Best 3/4 wt I own and a 12" brookie feels like a monster on it. I use it with a rio 4 wt line and absolutely love it!

Cherrywood. I got two within the last month and both were wood. I believe the picture is of an older model. The grip profile is also different and there is no medallion in the grip like the picture shows.

Neither. It is a trolling rod, so it goes well with a trolling reel or a conventional reel.

No, it's just the reel. The reel is a small one for an ultralight rod, but it's very well made and solid metal. Hope this helps your decision making process.

This is a real wood toilet seat and the metal parts are real. I've had this seat for a while now and it still looks brand new. The only negative I can say about it is there is plastic nuts that secure it to the toilet. This seems to be the only kind they use on toilet seats because real metal nuts will rust. One of my plastic nuts broke a few weeks ago so I did replace it with a real metal wing nut but I used some silver colored pipe dope stuff that my husband has. I don't know what the real name of the stuff is but metal fittings will not rust and you can always remove it.

yes it is a one piece rod. not sure what it is made of, but i have had mine for 3 years with no rust. \i really like the fact that you can flip the rod into the tub area when not using it. It makes the bathroom feel bigger

It is a 2 piece rod but there is a clear nylon bushing that is tapered where the rods slide in and out of each other. I bought the curtain hooks that have the roller beads on the top section that ride on the bar. The roller beads roll right over that nylon bushing and don't get stuck. They make some noise when you are opening and closing the curtain but I can live with it. So far this bar has been an excellent choice. Make sure you follow the directions for adjusting it to the proper width.

the one I got is a spinning rod, the difference between a spinning and bait casting rod are within the eyes the eyes closest to the reel seat are larger than those on a bait caster because of the way the line come off the reel during casting it helps each reel avoid backlash and tangles.

The Reel body itself is graphite the spool and hardware are aluminium. This is not a reel a guide may use but for the weekend fly fisherman this will serve you very weel good buy for the dollar

One would think for the price of this, it would all be metal. Unlike what someone else said, the gears/wheels are not metal; they are plastic with a rubber belt turning it. The item the hose winds around is metal. The item which slides back and forth to apply the hose evenly across the reel is plastic too; but, it does slide on the metal frame. The biggie for me is the "handle is metal"; this is the part I have always had rip off when I had plastic handles on previous junk. Thus far, this item is working very smoothly.

I purchased this for my new bathroom. While it didn't include mounting screws, the rod itself is a standard metal rod. I ordered matching metal beaded hooks as they supply are just white plastic. Overall I am pleased worn this it.

Rod is fixed in position and stays out as pictured. It doesn't move once installed.

I found no problem with the rod. The seat was a great improvement over the hard bench and having a seat back was fantastic. Things are tough but also heavy.

Yes, it is a travek spinning rod. The finishing is not great and it is stiffer for it medium rating, possibly as it is a 4 pcs rod.

Yes, no problem with that. The reel seat is similar to any other spinning rod as that the reels can be removed. The rod is telescopic. One thing though, this does not come with a case. There are others that do but they are multiple piece rods.

No, it is not a bait and switch. The type of reel with the rod would be indicated only by the model number/combo number, and not neccesarily indicated by the picture.

I think it is metal. I can tell you for sure this rod is very sturdy & stable.

It is a fly rod. Good introductory rod, fiberglas construction, with good moderate (mid-shaft flex) action at a very low price. Good for tight spaces with restricted casting space, and will handle decent-sized fish while protecting a light (3-4 lb) tippet. Picture must have simply been a mistake...
