Ronco's Pocket Fisherman endures...

I was amazed, they still sell these! When I was a kid in the 70's and 80's my friend Mario always had one one of these, in his backpack or the trunk of his car. He caught many fish... Personally I didn't have a taste for them because he mostly fished from urban waterways. But if you know a good fishing hole, it's a handy thing to have around.
