You guys see this before? Do you think it could launch a 3.0 Danny any further than a Lami?
It's the rocket launcher fishing rod, promoted by Roland Martin as the greatest thing for kids fishing - pump action casting. If you can't get the link to work, copy it into yuor browser.

$39.95 for a rocket launching fishing rod:jump: Popeils fishing rod was a much better deal.

LMAO! My 3 year old saw this advertised on NOGGIN and started screaming " Daddy I want that, I want that! They say it really works. Can I get it?"
Not for $40, sorry little guy.

Look at it. Do you want to fight a fish on that thing? As far as casts, says it casts about 30 feet, and I'm sure they don't mean with a 3oz. Danny

Does this really teach kids how to fish though? I'm sure my kids would love it though. Good marketing.

"Boy dies after getting shot with rocket rod"
"Roland Martin faces 7 to 10 for advocating such a ridiculous device" & Has been ordered to stand in front of a firing squad armed with Rocket Rods
