Description

When you cast it, blast it with the Rocket Fishing Rod, the kids fishing rod that accurately casts its line up to 25 feet. Great for kids of all ages, because it replaces standard kids fishing poles and takes the hassle out of fishing. Just pump, launch and reel in real fish! A safety bobber keeps the hook enclosed until it hits the water, and it all but eliminates snarls and snags. Once the bobber is in the water, the lure/bait compartment opens to drop the lure/bait to the desired depth. Made with hi-tech precision engineering, the patented design and rugged ABS construction will stand up tough to outdoor use. System includes the Rocket Fishing Rod, 1 Safety Bobber, 2 hooks, 150 feet of 8-pound test fishing line, 2 line stops, 1 weight and complete instructions. Recommended for ages 8 and up. More than 1 million sold.

  • Cool idea
This is a cool idea and works great for kids just wanting to have fun. It’s not very practical when it come to actually fishing but you can catch a fish. Kids like it, parents helping kids use it will be frustrated. Overall, a good product just need to be better quality

  • This is Not a Toy
Dave Barry once wrote about the difference between being a "Man" and being a "Guy". He talked about how society extolled the virtues of manliness and reveres great men. He talked about how a Man would trek into the unspoiled wilderness and build a Great and Mighty Dam that would change the face of nature to his own benefit. He then spoke about how a Guy would get to the dam and teach his kid to pee off of it. I had a Guy moment today. My kids are starting to be interested in the idea of fishing but aren't quite ready for the mechanics, so me being me, saw this as an opportunity to pull the trigger on one of those purchases that I've been waiting to buy until the "kids were ready". Today's purchase was a Rocket Fishing Rod. Half nerf gun, half fishing gadget, this 25" plastic cannon promises accessible fishing to young hands who haven't mastered the coordination required to delicately cast a lure into the serene wilderness. I am a true fisherman at heart and am easily seduced by shiny baubles that are designed to be more enticing to hobbyists than to actual fish. As a true fisherman, I put in an order. You know, for the kids. In practice, this noisy plastic artillery piece delivers mayhem and destruction the likes of which the local pond has likely never seen before. In lieu of a friendly nerf dart or simple plastic bobber, this cannon is loaded with a hard plastic mortar/bullet/bobber combination that I am certain will crash through the serene pond’s surface and cause all the fish in the lake to head for other bodies of water that promise peacetime conditions. In the interest of due diligence, I decided to test the rocket rod before taking the boys out. We can't have a misfire spoil such a formative fishing impression after all. This was purely magnanimous on my part and in no way rooted in a desire to play with a newly attained toy. I ripped it out of the packaging with my bare hands, glanced at the manual to make sure that it was included, and loaded up the projectile/mortar round/bobber combination device and looked around for a suitable target. My oversized beanbag chair promised a large enough target that even if I wasn’t pin-point accurate, my error would still hit the generous mark. As for why I have an oversized beanbag chair? It has been established that I do have a history of guy moments. I pulled back the pump action,made sure the bobber was engaged, disengaged the safety, and took careful aim at the bean bag. Once I pulled the trigger, I almost immediately became aware of three things. As I pulled the trigger, the sear disengaged and released the spring to send the test payload on its way. The recoil and noisy release immediately clued me in to the notion that this Rocket Rod was no normal piece of fishing gadgetry. The second revelation came as the the bobber hit the beanbag char, ricocheted off of the soft fabric, smacked into the aluminum window shades and gently landed on a cat who up till now was still either stunned by the noise of firing or was merely deciding if it wanted to run away or run away really fast. The noise of the hard plastic payload ping-poinging its way around my family room awoke my sleeping toddler who was previously napping on the other side of the house. So after a fruitless search for the cats, replacing an aluminum blind slat which had mysteriously developed a kink recently, and handing the now-unloaded rocket rod to my toddler who instantly discovered that its shape naturally suggested light saber combat, I came to my third realization. Under no circumstances would my children be allowed to use this gadget. I can’t wait to take it fishing. ... show more

  • Not real durable
Grandson wanted this after seeing the commercial on the Disney Channel. Nothing like playing to the audience to increase sales. We took it on a trip to a lake for a family reunion. It worked the first two days. The third day the bobber/sinker combo mechanism came off of the line when it shot out. We swam out to retrieve it. Re-attaching the mechanism to the line and making it work was not as easy as the instructions indicated. We went to a regular kids fishing rod for him to use. He even wanted to know if we could just use a big stick with string and a hook. He had a great time with it until it broke. ... show more

  • Line breaks very easily
This shoots the bobber and hook a fair ways. Pretty cool! Bought for a 3 year old. Probably better for 4+

  • Made entirely of cheap plastic. Even most parts that should be metal
Fun for 5 to 10 year olds but really made from cheap plastic. This purchase was to replace an older rocket fishing rod. This one was damaged in shipping since its cheap plastic in cheap clear packing.

  • Cool toy.
Saw a video and decided to buy one of my own to see how it works. Very cool product in that the idea is pretty neat. Was sad to discover that if I were to modify the rod it would be really hard and probably not worth it. You could easily make a better one out of pbc pipe, a garage door spring or slingshot cable, a fishing reel and Styrofoam. Cool idea though. Product shoots out about 30 - 40 feet. Reel is pretty crappy and rod feels cheapish but its what you would expect from a childrens toy. ... show more

  • Didnt work
Pulled out of packaging and tested it out and the first time the line broke. I redid everything and started to work. Took it on a fishing trip to use for fun and the line broke when launched again. Also had a really hard time setting the hook on the few times it actually launched and didn't break so the fish got away and ate the bait. Definitely wasn't worth the money spent on it. Maybe ok for a kid to play with but not to actually catch anything. ... show more
