The Instant Fisherman is somewhere between a novelty product and a serious fisherman's tool.
It's a novelty because the infomercial features people fishing on the side of the highway, or in the public park...typically places where fishing is not expected to occur.
It's quite accessible to those who aren't fishing junkies, and the very concept is clever enough to appear to be a novelty-only item.
Yet, the product is a serious tool.
It is versatile enough to go fishing for guppies in a pond or trying to hook a big trout in a rushing river.
And because it's telescoping, the Instant Fisherman can go virtually anywhere.
It's in its essence a portable, expandable fishing rod that takes the pain of hauling around expensive, awkward and fragile rods with you.
The Instant Fisherman is great for all types of people.
The casual fisherman will appreciate the Instant Fisherman's ease of use and price.
Professional rods can cost hundreds of dollars, and be unwieldy to store and transport....and let's face it, there really isn't much difference between an expensive fishing rod and a reasonably priced one.
Seasoned fishermen will appreciate the portability of the Instant Fisherman.
Fragile, long fishing poles often don't collapse, and are prone to breaking.
To travel with a typical fishing pole requires expensive cases and prayers that the airline won't lose your investment! With the Instant Fisherman, you can put it in your carry on bag or suitcase and put your worries to rest.
We suggest the Instant Fisherman for anyone who is looking to casually pick up fishing or for the hardcore fisherman who wants something portable.
An added bonus is that you can get an additional Instant Fisherman from their website for free (but you have to pay shipping).
