The practical, extendable Pocket Fishing Rod, is the perfect catch for all anglers. There are two types of fishermen. The one with the flimsy net on the end of a piece of old bamboo, who gets excited when he catches a stickleback in the local canal; & the serious angler, who sells a kidney to afford the latest rods, reels & floats, & who dreams of landing a foot long pike. Well if you want to catch more than a tadpole, but dont want to carry around an arsenal of hi-tech angling paraphernalia, then the Pocket Fishing Rod is for you. The compact rod can be carried around in your pocket (hence the name), but as soon as you catch sight of something darting around in the water, the rod is easily, & quickly extended, ready to land your prize catch. It comes with a reel, line, hooks & float, & is easy to assemble, so all you need to provide is the bait. It is the perfect gift for the first time fisherman, or for the serious angler who wants to be prepared, just in case he can get in some unexpected casting. The rod is a diminutive 20cm for easy mobility & 104cm when extended. It is made from an aluminum alloy & is sturdy enough to land the biggest freshwater fish.
