Will this be good enough to transport a sunfish from/to a lake, within a mile away distance?

I am planning on just that. The Sunfish weighs 115 pounds dry and maybe 15 more for the rigging. I am thinking I might have to extend the tongue but it looks simple enough

I would think so. That's about the size of my tank and I have two rather large goldfish and it works just fine.

Yes. Its great for a boat use and the the battery is non maintenance so it can be bounced around without worry. Case is nice as it's pre-wired for charging. Just need to cut the end that will plug into fishfinder. Other option is an 8 pack of AA batteries to produce 12 volts. That lasted me a few trips as well.

Yes, I would never use this in saltwater, also I would not use it for anything bigger than Bluegill or Sunfish if you want it to last, its just not a quality piece.

Not too heavy..with the carrier bag its very doable to bring to a lake and carry for .5-1 mile distance

I would say yes but watch out for the wind!!! It can blow you all over. I use mine on a river float fishing and can maneuver great in the calm flat parts in front of my camper. Just watch the wind lol. Hope this helps.

We use it for going back & forth to the beach but yes, it is pretty sturdy, I think it would be fine for long distance.

It would absolutely survive a river run. There are some sturdy loops you can use to connect this to others. We've had one for about 7 years now and use it heavily for lounging out in the lake all summer long. It's faded and worn looking, but structurally great. It's the "anchor" for our flotilla too. We connect an anchor and 2 to 5 more floats to it. It's awesome!

not sure, sorry! We returned it because it was too long. It isn't good for fishing in a lake, I guess it is more for ocean fishing and if we ever do that...we will just have them provide the poles.

probably not, a sunfish is likely too wide for that set of wheels, works good for my sunflower

Yes, I think it would be very good for that. We have birds such as hummingbirds that sometime make there way into our house and I use this to carefully catch them and return to the outdoors.

It should work but...it is a little flimsy for something heavy like water. You would want to wrap the handle, which is very thin, to make it easier to carry.

5/6 plenty light enough and holds lots of backing and big enough to handle larger flies and poppers for the bass and panfish. It's big enough that if you hook a bigger bass(2+ lbs) you'll be able to handle it.

I bought it for fishing off my dock in the intercostal waters of Daytona, FL. If you're looking for distance, you might want to look another direction -- but for pinpoint accuracy and consistency this rod has worked out great for me. I cast artificial lures and have had zero problems reeling in 3-5 Seatrout and Redfish.

Yes it is a good mobile fishing rod for lakes, creeks, or any place you see might have a bass or catfish in it. I would not use it in salt water for larger fish though. I have had no problems with it in the lakes I have fished and caught several bass, crappie, and catfish on it.

It isn't too bad. My husband and I carried it (a bit awkwardly) with baskets and fishing gear for maybe 1/8 of a mile. The size makes it awkward, but I think you could get it up a balcony. We don't leave ours inflated while storing it, either. Also, if you get a lot of wind, leaving it inflated may cause it to blow away.
