Royale Legend II Twin Tip Fishing Rod and Reel Combo | Baitcaster & Spinning Combo, 2-Piece Rod, Extra Tip, IM6 Graphite, Ultra-Light Sensitive, Smooth Casting, EVA Handle

KastKing Royale Legend II Twin Tip Fishing Rod and Reel Combo Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ (4.5/5) I’ve used the KastKing Royale Legend II Twin Tip Fishing Combo on multiple trips now, and it’s a versatile, well-designed setup. Here's my experience with it: Rod Performance (5/5): The IM6 graphite blank is lightweight but strong, offering excellent sensitivity for detecting subtle bites. The inclusion of a backup tip is a fantastic feature—it’s like having two rods in one. Switching between tips lets me adapt to different fishing styles, from finesse presentations to casting heavier lures. KastFlex technology truly shines in providing a solid backbone for handling larger fish. Reel Performance (4.5/5): The reel operates smoothly, with a consistent drag system that’s more than capable of handling both freshwater and light saltwater species. The casting distance is impressive, and it retrieves smoothly even under pressure. However, the reel's handle could feel slightly more robust for larger hands. Durability and Build Quality (5/5): The stainless-steel guides with ceramic inserts allow for smooth line flow and reduce friction, which is great for braided and monofilament lines. The EVA handles are ergonomic, offering a firm and comfortable grip even after hours of fishing. The overall build quality feels premium and durable, even when used in challenging conditions. Versatility (5/5): This combo excels in its adaptability. I’ve used it for bass fishing in freshwater and light inshore fishing for redfish and trout. The twin-tip design allows me to adjust to different setups without carrying multiple rods, making it perfect for anglers who value portability and convenience. Value for Money (4/5): For the price, you’re getting a high-quality rod and reel combo that performs well across various scenarios. The twin-tip feature adds value, but a slightly sturdier reel handle and more drag adjustment options could elevate it further. Conclusion: The KastKing Royale Legend II Twin Tip Combo is a versatile and reliable choice for anglers of all skill levels. Whether you're chasing bass in freshwater or trying your hand at light saltwater fishing, this combo offers the performance and adaptability you need. Highly recommended for those seeking a lightweight, travel-friendly option with excellent sensitivity and power. --- This review provides

This combo is my first experience using a bait casting reel. The combo does NOT come with line but I decided to put on some blue camo braided line from KastKing. After tuning and some practice (working through the backlashes 💀) the cast is very smooth! The weight of the rod with reel attached is perfect— while I still have yet to fish this combo longer than an hour, I have had no issues with fatigue. I have only caught one fish on the rod but felt the strike clearly. Since switching from an old Shakespeare rod I feel like I have more control over my lure presentation as well as fish strikes. I absolutely cannot make comparisons between this rod + reel combo and top tier fish equipment (as I don’t own nor have I used any), but I can say — for the cost — this combo gets the job done.

Very pleased with this combo. Great quality for the value!

Great pole and reel.

Used this a couple of times, so the review might change a month from now, but I'm happy with this. I was expecting a backlash or two while it was getting this all dialed in and that is what I got. No big deal, as I said, expected. Everything works as expected. I got the 7'3" left hand reel. Once its been dialed in, it casts nice and far, reels pretty smooth and feels good in your hands. The spool tension knob works great. Not completely sure how much the magnetic breaks help, but that's a nice feature. The look and feel of this don't seem like a budget rod/reel combo. I'm sure I'll be using this for a long time. The only issue i have with this, and I have the same issue with other budget rod/reel combos, is that the shaft flexes too much under the reel. It in no way affects the casting, catching or reeling, but it does feel a bit odd when you are reeling in a fish. There is a little flex way back in the handle that I find a bit unsettling. Like I said, it didn't stop me from catching fish, it didn't' impede with reeling in the fish, it just feels a bit weird.

This combo far exceeded my expectations. I love fishing and I try to go a few times a month. I needed something light and durable since I can be a little rough on my gears. This rod feels very nice, the fact it comes with an extra tip piece will be insurance that it will be lasting for a long time. The reel is very smooth. For the price, I was not expecting it to be performing this well. I mean most of my fishing reels alone cost more than this combo. I've been presently surprised by how good of a value this set has been. It casts well and the rod actions has been good.

It’s a cheap fishing pole but it cast good operates accordingly and catches fish! Been using the heck out of this thing this season and it’s still working just fine and having no issues. There’s glued in or press in red buttons on the hand crank on the reel and one of those got damaged either by my own neglect or just came out. Doesn’t affect the operation of it. Pole has great feeling and handles 25lbs braided string awesome. Well worth buying the combo

Update 9/29/25 KastKing sent me a free replacement rod and reel. Great customer service. I am anxious to get out and see how it performs. Original Review: From all appearances this is a beautiful rod and reel combo, but looks can be deceiving. The rod snapped on the first outing setting the hook on descent fish. Makes sense when they ship is with two tips because then are junk. I do a lot of backcountry fishing and this is not a rod durable enough to trust at a municipal pond. I returned this rod and the other Kastkings rod I ordered. The reel is quite nice, but I can’t help but wonder how long it would stay that way given the performance of the rod. Love their sunglasses though.

Not a fisherman,, but this is awesome, I bought it because my friend broke my rod,, the extra end it came with fit the broken rod,, so now I have the old one working, plus a much nicer fishing rod I shall not share
