does the saltwater rod come with a fighting butt (cork below the reel seat)?

It has a cork handle but the handle is located "above" the reel. There isn't cork below where the reel attaches to the rod. Hope this helps.

No. However, there is a little card in the box with it with the story on. It's pretty cool. I have seen many of the glass bottomed tankards but not many with the shilling trapped in the glass on the bottom.

Yes, the rod comes with a hard case and a cloth case with sections for each piece of the rod. It is a very nice rod. The medium action seems to me to be more of a medium-heavy action. I also have bought a medium-light version but I haven't had the chance to fish it yet.

It comes with the RCD- rope cocking device. does not come with the alternative crank that goes in the butt stIck.

No, it does not. It is a true tackle box, but works great for hair accessories, as well.

No just the bag but it's great....I carry four flyrods and eight reels plus all my tackle....

No, it does not.For what it's worth, my experience with the "level wind" feature on certain reels suggests they do not work well when used in a salt water environment. The salt accumulates inside the level wind mechanism and causes myriad problems, which usually present themselves when you are trying to land a large fish. In my opinion, no salt water reels should have a level wind feature except for those which sit, polished and pretty, on some "sportsman's" shelves.

There are probably many more rods with more flexibility that you could purchase, depending on how serious you are about fishing. For me, this was enough for 1 week of coastal fishing a year, but not much "whip" at all. Still, the biggest problem I had was with the seat for the reel...immediately upon receipt I tried to mount my reel and the seat started moving. And before ever casting with it, the whole seat was rotating 360°. Very disappointed!

No, but a little boodklet comes with it. Very simple to operate - just pull the lever down.

It does come with a fishing string spool attachment and fishing bolts. Works OK for small fish, up to a few pounds. We replaced the small cotton type rope with fishing line and it worked good. It has power for hunting small game, rabbit maybe squirrel if you're a good shot. But it cannot handle a bolt with a broadhead for amything bigger. I bought two of these for my 6 & 8 year old grandson and they are great for a first crosssbow.

Yes the picture in incorrect. I just received the fly rod and it is a good value. The rod has a nice action and it is well made at a great price.

No, it doesn't. The rod is decent, but the reel is only so-so. The anti-reverse stops working on my reel every once in a while. I took it a part and tinkered with it, and it seems to be better. When I wrote Daiwa about it they told me I had to ship it back to them, which I wasn't going to do.

No the picture shows a bait casting rod, these are spinning rods. I sent the one I ordered back since it was not what was pictured and not what I needed.

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.

It does. Comes with a padded nylon case that holds the rod and tips and keeps them separated with a divider. The case has an adjustable strap so you can throw it over your shoulder. I was able to bring this on a flight as a "personal item" along with my usual carry-on bag on a flight to Florida.

Yes, tension rod is included. I do recommend that you buy a few more Velcro pieces, as we still had a problem with flies getting in, but other than that this worked great!

No it does not, however it was a great first fishing kayak . I have upgraded now but still have this one for buddies or wife to join me. If you are just starting out, don't skimp on the paddle it can make a big difference
