Good for the Bug Out Bag!,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I bought this item after researching the subject a bit. I was looking for something to put in my survival kit/bug out bag. (Do some research on the Federal Reserve folks!) I originally was going to buy the Coleman Fishpen or something similar, but I was convinced it would break too easily, and I bought this one instead.
I'm glad I did, and I think I'm going to buy a few more of them. I haven't attempted to catch a fish with it yet but I have practiced casting with it a bit. Cons The device is hardly pocket sized, maybe you could manage to stuff it in the cargo pocket of your fatigues, but putting it in the back or front pocket of your jeans just isn't realistic. It fits well inside a Crown Royal Bag with a few accessories and a roll of 20lb test line. It takes a little getting used to and if you do it wrong the line can get tangled up inside the reel. Pros The device is sturdy for what it is. I've intentionally punished it a bit to test it. It comes with 10lb test line, and I have purposely caught the line on an immovable object and pulled. The line will break before the device. You can get a good cast out of it, and it reels back in smoothly. While I listed its size as a con, it is also a plus. While not pocket sized, it can fit in your glove compartment and countless other places your regular fishing pole can't. The Price is Right!

Ronco Pocket Fisherman... really a good product,
By Aaron John "blunes" (St. Vincent and the Grenadines..... Caribbean Islands) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME) I resently purchased 2 of the Ronco Pocket Fisherman for me and my girlfriend from Amazon and since I recieved them in October, 2009 I have made about 10 fishing trips and have caught lots of fish of various sizes. They work perfectly and are worth every penny. I fish on the shores of our local beaches in St. Vincent in the Caribbean and the casting is perfect since I adjust the sinker to accommodate the heavy surf. Where I fish there are lots of Permits & Croakers and they put up a real fight, the pocket fisherman has done its job so thus far... I would most definitely recommend this product to anyone with fishing as an interest. I am planning on purchasing another for my son, who likes the feel of the Ronco Pocket fisherman. The biggest fish I have caught was about 1 pound.
