Fishing Commercials

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Fishing Commercials

Post by Salar »

Here's a link to eight of the wackiest fishing product infomercials.

I find it hard to believe that Roland Martin endorsed the rocket fishing rod. I guess there's no pension plan for tournament bass fisherman :lol:

Cheers,

Salar.

I can't believe they are hocking a device that will give you the perfect colour to use... Funny how in the commercial they come up with Chartruse, is that not the Default fishing colour when having a slow day?

That was a great link to post

If it wasn't bad enough the first time, they've now upgraded the rocket rod with "Max Cast" technology and a flashing light up lure.....

If I did something similar with old car tires or other miscellaneous junk, I'd be accused of polluting. :roll:
