Looks interesting, but how the heck would you mend your line? Have you had the chance to handle one yet?

Might be OK for crappie jigging off a dock.
Can't see anything more than that.

If I remember correctly this concept was the result of a "Tunnel Rat" US Army soldier in Vietnam who dreamed one night in the early 80's that he was back in the tunnels, chasing down a VC with a rope and grappling hook in his hand. Very much similar to the teepee-based nightmare experienced by Elias Howe which resulted in the development of the sewing machine needle*.

If one did have use for such a rod it certainly sounds like it has a number of "bang for the buck" features.

Actually, I think it's made for crappie jigging. And RC, no I haven't tried one yet. Saw it in an article, thought it looked different and was wondering if anyone has used one.
