  • Yo-Yo Fishing Reel

    Was killing time at work, as usual. Found this on a site related to survival and googled it. Just so happens to be sold also at Cabelas so I am making the leap to assume it must work. Never used or heard of this before but it seems small and simple. PLUS IT'S DIRT CHEAP! Could buy a dozen of these and set them up at a lake or stream and catch dinner for a group of survivors. I'm way down for this one. Anyone have an RL experience with this mechanism?

      Good enough for me, think I'll put one in my pack. One more chance at a meal without having to keep a constant eye on it.
