What do the fishermen in the group think of these?


considering that you can cast a swivel 20 feet with one, i would
venture a guess that its probably pretty much worthless as a fishing
pole for anything more than a pound or so.

Ron Popiel's Pocket Fisherman redeaux...


There is a heavy duty model with a bait-casting reel. That model has
two stainless steel
pieces, each with an eye for the line to pass through. The vendor
claims he caught a 60-pound sturgeon using the heavy duty model.

One of the fishermen who wandered by thought the concept would be good
for fishing in brushy areas.
