Unlikely.  You know they are not spin nor baitcasting rods but rather pole rods just hold and wait for a fish.  That means the farthest you can reach is 13 feet from shore.  If you spend a little more you can get a spinning rod between 6 to 7 feet and that'll get you into some salmon.

If you are looking for a rod on a budget I would recommend the Shimano FX line up, most tackle shops have the 12-25lb (Mono)/15-40lb (Braid) Spinning rod for about $30.
