I actually used this Shakespeare travel rod a few weeks ago on a 3-day backpacking/fishing trip in the White Mountains, NH. It is a 6'6" rod which breaks into 6 pieces, costs less than $15, and comes with a lightweight plastic rod tube. All you need is a cheap reel (<$20) and you're all set.
This one from Shakespeare works really well for me. You can't beat the price either.
I bought it from a local store I believe. Here it is on amazon though

These rods are fine for the smaller sized fish. They're easy to use while backpacking as they collapse, instead of coming in separate pieces. Definitely not an everyday rod, but very functional for hiking. Plus at this price you can afford to buy a few and break them with out feeling bad at all.
I'm looking for one as well. Here are a few I have been looking at.
