Fire Off The Max Cast Rocket Fishing Rod

TV informercials don’t normally pique our interest, especially since TiVo allows us to skip ‘em. But late last night, we caught wind of the Max Cast Rocket Fishing Rod, a gadget that casts a line with a simple push of a button.
If you’ve ever been fishing, you’re probably familiar with tangled reels and strain that results from relentless casting. Now you can catch dinner without the hassle and boring technicalities. Designed to look like a hi-tech blaster, the powerful pump shoots the glow in the dark lure 30-feet into the air. To buy one for $39.90 (or two installments of $19.95!), watch the infomercial after the jump.

I definitely saw a kids version of this at some dollar store, hah

i think this is a kids version.. but i idea is neat, they should make them for real hicks too. heavy duty, camo colorway, reels in upto 200 pounds, optical+laser sight, fish detection, doubles as shotgun.
