I use to have a couple Eagle Claw pack pole that were pretty nice. Still have one of them.
Several of them out there, different brands, I would imagine you can find one that you like/want.

Amazon is good.

Checkout a website called TEMU.com it is very inexpensive and have tons of things. Free shipping but slow. Price is right if not in a hurry. Tons of fishing gear available will be much less than you will pay anywhere else.

I have two, four piece eagle claw rods. The butt is reversible for either a fly rod or a spinning rod. I have had these for over 45 years. I would say they probably do still make these,unless they went out of business or were taken over. My wife bought these for me 45 years ago when we were still able to pack in to our favorite mountain lakes. These came in aluminum tubes,easy to pack in.

Those yellow eagle claw have always been nice. Various lengths, ultra light and light. They come with a tube case. Check 'em out.

I had one of those but sold it when I left Tahoe 22 years ago. Don't know why. I still have all my other rods up there from that time.

My wife's is 40 also, 5' buggy whip. Still good. I bet they are available. I'd recommend WildSports but they're gone. Great store, closed. We never heard why.

I also have an eagle claw 4piece pack pole that came with an aluminum tube to carry it in. hiked all over the Sierra's with it used it with Micheal Garcia 308 reel and also a fly reel. caught lots of fish with it. I don't useit now but since I have over a 55 year history with it no way I will get rid of it

There are a lot of good multi piece pack rods out there, Fenwick, Bass Pro Shops, etc.
oi have a number of them. I personally don’t like telescopic rods, too stiff.
When I couldn’t find what I wanted I built my own, different lengths, actions, etc.
Good luck and tight lines to you.

Jeff, I'm sure you're right. We all said eagle claw because we quit looking a long time ago. That only means we got what we needed. I'll pay attention, see what's out there, you know, just in case.
