I have never seen this reel /rod concept

I like my reel attached to the rod. Just call
Me old fashioned I guess.

Some commendable catch and release practices right there. I also prefer the gravel bath prior to release but I just kick them back in the river typically, bending over is too much effort.

Well maybe someone should kick you in the groin and send you back in the river.

Got a chuckle out of me for what it's worth.

Well. I’m not sure where comments are directed. I’m fine fishing with my reel constantly attached. But please don’t kick me in the groin. That would hurt and ruin my double haul. Thanks

Im not sure about anything anymore but yea I'll keep my reel attached also..

It’s like a chest pack reel set holder. Weird.

Someone from Montana came up with that idea because they couldn’t handle the salmon catch with their troutish gear perhaps ?

 

[Long_Rod_Silvers]

Very unique idea.....

 

[TicTokCroc]

It seems like a solution looking for a problem...

What’s next......fishing with just the reel???

What’s next......fishing with just the reel???

Or just the rod with the line tied to the tip.

Wow... wrong in so many ways, at least that's my opinion.

 

[jaredoconnor]

How do you reel the fish back in? I don't get it.

 

[TicTokCroc]

I use a similar concept except I mount the reel on my ladder while I'm euro nymphing.

It is designed for a one armed audience. He has a really cool video taking a disabled vet out where you can see it in action.

Amazing invention, just learned of it. But hope I can encourage someone one day to get into the sport knowing this exists.

Thank you @Porter2

 

[jaredoconnor]

That is very cool. I imagine the lever style reels don't work well on larger fish, so I can see the need!
