Nauticalia

Featured on Radio 2's Chris Evans Drivetime Show - "...every fish you catch seems huge with this rod!"

This is a truly remarkable little gadget - a portable fishing rod that fits in a glovebox or even a coat pocket. It's not "full-size" and you couldn't use it for catching sharks, but at 4ft extended (approx 1.2m), it's definitely useable. The miniaturised reel is fully functional with a switchable ratchet (so you can use it right or left-handed) and line brake/clutch - something of an engineering masterpeice. The rod made from aluminium alloy, has seven fibreglass draws that retract inside the handle for stowage (the reel detaches). A pen-style lid fits on top, giving a total length of just 8". Comes supplied with 5-lb (2.5kg) breaking-strain line and a spinner hook.

REVIEWED IN Practical Boat Owner Magazine - In their 'New Gear' round-up - described as the 'current must-have boys' toy...the beautifully crafted pocket rod will appeal to all fishing enthusiasts.'

ALSO AWARDED Angler's Mail 'GREAT GIZMO' award.
