About Shakespeare Fishing Tackle
Founded in 1897 by William Shakespeare, Jr., an avid fisherman of 27 years, Shakespeare Fishing Tackle has been a revered name within the fishing business for more than a century. Among William's first inventions was the level-wind reel, which was designed to wind fishing line evenly back on the spool. Now common on most fishing reels, the level-wind reel was a revelation at the time, and helped propel Shakespeare into prominence in the early part of the 20th century. In the ensuing years, Shakespeare introduced such innovations as the Backlash brake, which prevented spools from backlashing; the glass fiber Wonderod; the pushbutton Wondercast spinning reel; the Ugly Stik tubular fishing rod; and the Synergy spincast reels. Shakespeare Fishing Tackle is headquartered in Columbia, South Carolina.

This review is from: Shakespeare Batman Kit Combo (2-Feet 6-Inch) (Sports)
I bought this for my nephew for his 3 year birthday. He loves anything Batman and he loves to go fishing with his dad. So, this seemed like the perfect gift for him. He loved it immediately and when he was told what it was for, he was even more excited.
The item is easy to use and learn. The kid themed design and size work perfect for my nephew and makes it that much more appealing for him to learn how to fish with his dad. It casts well enough for what a child needs it for and the reeling works great too! I would recommend this for anyone who has a child looking to learn to fish.

This review is from: Shakespeare Batman Kit Combo (2-Feet 6-Inch) (Sports)
This is a great starter item for anyone who has a child & wants to try to teach them to fish. I have a 3 year old whom really loves batman, so this was a must. It is the perfect length & weight. It also has a practice weight for casting for the kids to throw around before actually fishing w/ the rod & reel. It doesn't cast as far as regular sized rod/reels, but its for a kid so it shouldn't be expected to, it serves its purpose for a child. My son did not catch a fish right off, so we snuck a small bass on the hook when he was preoccupied catching grasshopper/crickets for bait. He was very excited once bringing the fish in. Once he is a year or so older he will be much more capable of bringing one in on his own. This is a really good quality & very durable item. Thank you for the memories.
