1This was the biggest waste of money EVER!!!!  May 17, 2010
We bought this fishing rod for our 5 year old today. We threw it away within 2 hours. Not only did it hardly work if was too hard for an adult to use much less a kid. It is cheaply made (the telescoping rod broke almost immediately) and complete waste of money. I would have returned it to the store but it wasn't even worth the gas to drive it back! It was extremely difficult and doesn't even open up when it hit the water making it IMPOSSIBLE to catch any fish. Do not spend a dime on this ridiculous product!

2Fun while it lasted - great intro to fishing until it broke.  May 11, 2010
My son got this for a 5th birthday present last year from his grandpa. Last fall he had trouble cocking it, but could shoot, reel, etc. Like others mentioned you do have to add a little split shot weight to the hook to get it to actually open up the bobber and sink down. My son sees me fishing a topwater plug and wants to do the same thing with his rocket rod, so half the time there's nothing on the hook and he's just shooting out and reeling in. As long as he's having fun, I couldn't care less!

After a few uses, the reel got completely backlashed. I have no idea how this happened, but it was a real PITA to dismantle the thing to the point that the line could be fixed. After that, it was operation as normal.

The rod wasn't used over the winter and we just broke it out last weekend. After a few casts, the large button/lid that you press to make it shoot snapped off and fell in the lake, never to be seen again. I'm not having a ton of luck finding replacement parts either.

This was a good idea for kids and beginning fishing, but not very durable. Plan on getting replacement bobbers if you are going to use much before moving on to a traditional pole.

1Disappointing waste of money  Jan 29, 2010
I bought two of these for my sons because they were excited by the TV ads and believed that expert-fisherman Roland Martin represented true quality. The rods never worked. The lines snapped before we shot the rods for the first time. I spent an hour putting them back together. Next, pump and shoot mechanisms did not work. I spent hours fiddling with the rods and only cast them 1 or 2 times. The fishing line weight was very light and snapped easily. The mechanics of the rod made it difficult to re-string. My experience was the same with both rods.

After my one very unsuccessful outing, I started working on getting a refund. I emailed Spin Master's Customer Service ([...]) only to hear "We are sorry to hear that you are not satisfied with the product you purchased. Your feedback is always appreciated..." Really?!? I asked for a refund. There was no mention of a product return policy. They did send a phone number where they told me that you can get a replacement within 30 days with the bar code from the back. Lessons learned: save the box for the broken toys, follow up immediately, and do not purchase large plastic toys in the first place.

3Rocket Fishing Rod Review  Aug 18, 2009
Fun toy for my 6 year old. However, still need adult supervision with the hook so that it is carefully placed within the closable capsule.
