Need a laugh? I thought this was a spoof at first. I'm still shaking my
head.

Not a spoof at all. My roommate had one in college, and it fit very nicely
in his backpack. It was actually a pretty well made thing, and it definitely
caught fish. I'd buy one to keep in the glovebox, if I had a car.

The weird waist belt thing, on the other hand...

In the '70's they had a similar thing called "The Tadpole" so named
because it was stubby and shaped like a tadpole. In the '60's it was
the Popeil pocket fisherman.
