Automatic Reel Fishing Yo Yo

These little reels are amazing! They are easy to setup and use and be fishing while you are doing something else around camp. Very easy to setup and adjust the line tension and the pressure of the hook set pressure. Once you figure out how to setup and adjust your reels it takes only seconds to do and then your fishing. And can tend to other camp chores while the reels do the fishing for you. I love mine I now have 5 of them and they can be set to catch big or small fish just with a few adjustments to the reels. A great item to have for a survival situation. IMOP.

Fabulous for your bug out bag

Very effective little reel.Great for the bug out bag. Suggest using a strong string when attaching to tree limb, the reel will hold up to a good size fish

first check your state laws on these. some states don't allow them ie texas and several others. great little product though and have used these things most of my life and caught tons of catfish on them. if have to set them high either unwind some line from it OR use a split shot set on the line to keep the fish in the water cause they will pull the fish out and kill it.

Better built than the ones I bought 30-40 years ago. may wind up buying more, but id laws restrict number of lines you can have in the water and you must be watching them at all times.

Exactly what i needed and surpassed my expectations weether you fish, hunt, or need it any other purposes you can find for it to do it will do the job a must have

GREAT fun!

First item I bought from the website and I love it! overall, it's a very nice product and great company!

This's just what I needed in my bugout bag, I intent to buy a dozen more, for gifts to friends, Thanks BudK

Works great, excellent product

Had some of these as a kid , not tested these 2 i bought, i just put one in wives and my bug out bags.

They seem silly but they work, I have 5 of them, tried them out in different areas. They work best in running water in standing water they tend to get snaged on bottom. I only left them for 4 hours as a test and was pleased.

Great little yo-yo. Smaller than I expected but that's cool because I can carry more than one at a time adding very little weight to my pack. Problem is they are illegal to use here in Oklahoma and most other states but you can bet that in a survival situation I wont be worried about a game warden. If the line hangs up just cut the line and replace it (very easily done) don't snatch the heck out of it.

this thing is great i used it yesterday and caught a fish used it again and caught a snag jerked and jerked until i finally broke it i destroyed the spring but i have to say that it was a amazing reel

Took 2 of these to Lake of the Ozarks. They worked great. In fact, had better luck with these than my fishing pole. In several cases I had a fish in less than 2 minutes. They weren't huge by any means but pan-sized and within legal size limits. In a survival situation these would be a must-have. Attach a snare to these and set them on small game trails to catch rabbits and such.

First time I have ever even seen one of these. I ordered one just to see if it was worth its metal and wow..I love it, it works amazingly and takes up no room in my bug out bag.

Just got the 2 i ordered in the mail yesterday, i cant wait to use them on a camping trip with some friends. it seems to be well made and light weight as well as takes up very little space in my pack. if they catch any fish on the first time, ill see about getting my survival group to order some.

Just set it and forget it! Ok don't actually forget it but it gives you time to pitch the tent or grab some more firewood while you wait. Can also be used for trapping! See youtube videos on it and buy 2 or 3! On a side note, these are lighter than hauling food. Save yourself some back stress and get these for camping or bugging out. Are you really going to remember a fishing pole?

I purchased the yo-yos for family and friends. They have all expressed great interest in them. Now time to buy for myself.

Works good, A little smaller then I expected but works.

Great item to carry in your pack!

A bou8ght this for an addition to my emergency equipment and haven't actually used it yet. I'll try it the next time I go fishing but it appears to be highly workable. I noticed that a lot of reviews addressed snag problems so I guess I'll try using a bobber. I just hope a striper or sturgeon doesn't decide to take the bait or it will be "Goodbye Fishing Yo Yo." LOL

The fishing yoyo is a must have. For the people that go out like me and just walk and walk and fish for hours each day, some day you will find your self lost! Its not fun but things happen. When I received mine a few months ago I used it just to see. 19 inch trout!!! So I got one for my son and now he uses it for fun. Great to just put in the fishing vest. Just in case anything ever happens. Great to have.

I tried to carefully pull the line out a bit to see if it would retract, and it never went back to its original position. Possible user error.
