Emailed them about it, hopefully they get back to me on Monday. If i can't get my hands on any I'll probably go the Sharpie route.

I'm trying to match the hatch, with the predominant baitfish in my rivers and creeks being creek chubs and other minnows with thick stripes down their sides. Does anyone have lures that come in a pattern with this stripe? I want to know before I go scribbling lateral lines on all my Keitechs.

Really I was looking for something telescopic, something able to be put into a backpack and not stick out too far, but the Celilo seems like a great fit if I'm not able to find exactly what I'm looking for

I've heard talk of creek smallies around me so I might snag one of those, thanks man!

Hell man, that's perfect! I'm putting it in the cart!

Last fall I got into creek fishing, but a problem I consistently ran into was getting my rod caught in branches, having to set my rod in the water to get around logs, and just general unwieldy-ness. The racket I made was not enjoyed by the fish, and usually spoiled possible honey holes. I've been thinking about telescopic combos, but I don't know where to look. I'm wondering if anybody has any input on cheap (around $100 or less) telescopic rods? (These fish are chubs and sunfish so ultralight is preferred.)
