flippin and pitchin Posted June 22, 2011 Posted June 22, 2011 Okay, don't throw stones yet. My co-worker is looking for a Popiel Pocket Fisherman for a collectors thing. He comes up with the strangest stuff and this is one of them. I just sold my last one. Kidding. If anyone has one and is willing to part with such a well known piece of Americana let me know. I won't even take a finder's fee. Doug Quote
Super User clayton86 Posted June 22, 2011 Super User Posted June 22, 2011 Are those them rods that look like a pen that convert to a fishing set up Quote
Super User J Francho Posted June 22, 2011 Super User Posted June 22, 2011 They are a dime a dozen on ebay. Quote
tholmes Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 Ha! The spousal unit had one of those things when we got married. What a piece o' crap! I replaced it with an old Zebco 33 Classic and a Shimano 'glass rod. It was a VAST improvement. She still gets ticked when I laugh about her Popiel Pocket Fisherman. Tom Quote
Nick Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 They are a dime a dozen on ebay. Coming in at .8333 cents each? Sign me up for a 1000, Francho! Quote
Super User bilgerat Posted June 24, 2011 Super User Posted June 24, 2011 I have the 90's version, the "Instant Fisherman" brand new still in the box complete with a Helicopter Lure starter set that came with it. Got it as a gift. What a joke. That's the equivalent of buying a woman a toilet scrub brush set for her birthday... Quote
jignfule Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 Don't see them around much, might have to go straight to G Loomis and order one. Quote
