Fishing challenge idea: $40 (or $50) tournament challenge. You go to Cabela's or some other outdoor story and buy a rod, reel, line, and lures and place in a fishing tournament with the gear!
I have caught dozens of speckled trout redfish and flounder , I only use 50$ rod and real total cost. Most people truly overdo it on spending. Fishing shouldn't be expensive.
You should give it another try, but with the spinning reel version! Its waaaaay better than the casting one! ;) Oh and don't be afraid, that thing can handle a lot! I've done a lift test with a 1kg (about 2.2lb) and it just didn't break!
The button on the reel is your braking system, when you hook up you can press the button and stop it from pulling any more line off of your spool. Your welcome!
This is how you use it. First of all, the black button is the hookset button. You hold it down to lock the spool when you set the hook. To cast it, you turn the silver knob on the other side until your terminal tackle drops at a decent speed (Without thumbing the spool) and doesn't overspin the spool and backlash. Thumb the spool tight, cast and let off pressure on the spool to let the weight of the tackle spin the spool. Think of it like a modern baitcaster that's always in freespool mode.
I have one of these and there's 2 ways to cast it. The first being, if you unscrew the handle off, you could cast it normally, but that's counter productive as you have to screw it back on every time. The second way to cast it which is what I do, is to cast it like a fly rod. How? Hold the line about 2-3 inches above the reel, make sure your lure or bait is about 2-3 feet down from the tip. Then pull out as much line from the reel and cast! As your lure or bait are flying out there, allow the line to glide through your free hand. To stop the reel, push the black button. Works well and it's a lot of fun
my 5yo kid loves this pen rod. reel is junk, but there is a combo with ok spinning reel, or you can attach any other reel with some tape because reel seat is smaller than stAndard.
Yesterday I had received the pen rod and reel (spincast) and I had tried and casting with the fishing line that had come with the reel was too heavy lb test to cast properly.....so this morning I had changed out the line from the pen reel to a 4lb test, I will say this...a lot smoother casting and no coiling up from the new line I had out on compared to the original line the reel had come with. Try changing out your line
I have an emergency tackle box in my truck at all times with this rod and a replacement reel I bought at Value Village for 2$. It's actually pretty alright for something that can fit in the pencil case I keep its lures in. It's really handy in situations where I wished I could get a few casts out but don't have my proper equipment.
You push the button under the line and cast while the bait is in the air Gently put your thumb on the line and then reel a little bit when the line is in the whater
It's not the size of your rod that counts, It's how you use it. I've never known a fish to be a connoisseur on rod's and tackle. Why o why are there so many rod snobs on this earth. Or are they just so gullible. A hand line works just as well.
Fun video. Keep up the great work. Of course the pen rod and reel are a novelty. If you consider that you can actually use it to catch fish its a pretty good product. You also probably should have put braid on it. Less stretch in the line will give a better hook set. I've had the pen rod for about 2 years. Its not going to replace a 7' combo but for a throw in the bag incase there's a fishing spot on the way to gram grams house. Or in the glove box for pond fishing on your lunch break or stealth fishing the tanks at Bass Pro or Cabelas.
I'm not sure if this is legal so please don't hate if I'm wrong but you should do catch and cook Golden Trout if its legal but if it's not please don't hate me
I have one of these and I know that that lil dial on the left side is your drag and that lil black button is like a break when a fish starts running off with it
they make good small reels, could you put a good small reel on it and have a much better experience? i keep a little handline setup in my purse but i'd love a little rod i could keep in there
Could you tell me what lure and hook you used? I want to get into bass fishing and I've never caught one before. I just want to learn something new. And possibly your setup.Thank you
I like how he never clickbaits his videos
Maxim Boyko yea
His taki catch and cook
Maxim Boyko he dose some time

TheFatKidFromUp $30 dollar challenge from any local shop. I could do that easily.
Good idea

Imagine sitting in your home, a craw dad comes by so you eat it, end up being caught and some weirdo with a camera calls you tubby
Lol
I love your account name
Perfect. Come home from school. Get my chicken soup and watch firststatefishing
Paul Bryson lol
Ugh chicken soup, it’s too hot here for soup
I am out of school
Tony A amen
That's sick lol
I went to camp there! I love that creek! I hate it during trout season though it gets 2 packed for only having like 3 holds to fish lol
That place looks beautiful
Where in Delaware is this?
@RedX" NoNE oF uR BuSiNeSs"
@RedX he just asking a question, no need for your comment
@RedX leave the boomer alone zoomer
They have a pen fishing rod with a spinning reel.
lol
I was thinking the same I have the spinning reel set up and have caught some decent fish on it. But the bait caster pen rod is terrible
BUSHCRAPPING ikr
Ya that’s what I bought
I honestly thought too that your profile pic was a hair on my screen
Thinking of buying one just to toss in the console in my suv for "just in case" fishing moments.
Just found his channel... Now I'm binge watching everything

The Ohio-Boy or you can put your thumb on the spool
can you make another fly fishing video?
To cast this rod, you have to turn the dial on the side of the reel and then cast it. The button stops the line from going out too far
Catfishing at night at a lake using live bluegill would make a great video DO IT
Buy the spinning reels one
What if a 7lb bass bit your worm!?!🤣
Bass And bluegill classic what if statements
i caught my pb bass on a worm
Ryan9124 same I caught an 8 pounder with a worm
he would have a good figjt on his hands
It Would Be Lit👌🔥
Fishing rod pen..like this
The black button is to stop the line from coming out
beautiful trout my guy. would love to see you land more of them fly fishing!
Should have bought the spinning one
The button is the brake system
God i remember 10k and now your at 155k keep it up and lets get to 1 mil
i have been here before 900 subs
Did u realize his chinstrap lol
I know right 😂 crazy how he blew up
Steven Monchik no if i was lying i would say wow i remember 100 subs
I was here at 1200
I used exactly the same rod to catch small trout here in England on little streams, loads of fun!
I go fishing about 2 times a month, and I have tried EVERYTHING AND EVERYWHERE and have not caught a fish in over 7 years
derpy FPV ok, what state do you live in? Just asking so I can give tips according to state
@@brooktrout8568in the past month I have finally started catching multiple fish a day
derpy FPV great! Bass, trout, saltwater?
@@brooktrout8568 usually bass or carp. Every once in a while trout
Maybe change your Avatar?
Jesus was the fisherman
Incredible *fishing* Congratulations successful friend.👍🎣🐟🐠😊
Great video, do a wish app challenge.. 30 bucks rod reel and lure
Dshutts & Company nah will take two years to ship and he's going to get scammed. PS. He won't get his rod but a dlido
So tru
4:36 yeah he real man
I was thinking about making a bumper sticker that says: “Feeding the Fish of Tomorrow”
Trout love crawfish.. Tight lines!
Catch n cook with micro pen rod plz
The reel on your micro pole is a live bait caster. The more weight on it makes it cast easier and farther
Do catch n cook plz they r interesting
Been a sub forever and i cant get enough of you! Please upload more
Ahhhh I love ur videos plz try to upload more than once a week

Wow bro, today I found your channel. Your channel is Amazing!
Your videos are editing like a pro :)
Its a bait caster u have to feather the spool with ur thumb when u cast to keep track the line and brake once the bait hits the water
I would love to have a home there because when i finished school i will go straight to the creek
fuck you

Trout do eat crawfish dude. like the videos man
The micro fishing rod is hella good if u go blue gill fishing and the button is a stopper for when the go

Try changing out your line
I went to Portugal not that long ago and didn’t even fish there once don’t bully me too hard firststate 😂😭

It's actually pretty alright for something that can fit in the pencil case I keep its lures in. It's really handy in situations where I wished I could get a few casts out but don't have my proper equipment.
Great video keep it up
first state , dude you are my fav fishing you tuber! thanks for putting out content.
Love the vids keep it up
The button is to stop the line bud and you can change the drag so your line doesnt just unreel....
U should use the pen rod spinning reel
You are amazing 😂🙏🏻
What does the tripod on that camera look like to ya’ll
You should try the biggest fishing combo and use it for small river fishing
I ordered one a year ago still says on the way
Has it been 2 years now legend has it he still hasn’t got it
You push the button under the line and cast while the bait is in the air Gently put your thumb on the line and then reel a little bit when the line is in the whater
Go deep sea fishing with it😂
That’s awsome keep up the good work

Wade Oneyear he has done this before,
BraveTamedHamster ok thanks for telling me

Welcome back to “the why is this in my recommended” show
to cast you should out your tumb on the spool then release when you want to cast
Put a different reel on it
Those little shakespeare micro rods are a great budget ultralight but they are made with some cheap materials and there really easy to break
I caught an 8 pound carp on it
they make good small reels, could you put a good small reel on it and have a much better experience? i keep a little handline setup in my purse but i'd love a little rod i could keep in there
first comment bro i love your vids
Interesting size..would be any good as a packable surviving kit..or is it a waste of time?
EARLYISH SQUAD
Could you tell me what lure and hook you used? I want to get into bass fishing and I've never caught one before. I just want to learn something new. And possibly your setup.Thank you
1st
The micro rod is hella good for blue gill. And the button is the stopper when the fish go's
YES ANOTHER VIDEO
you should come to Va there are lots of good fishing waters James River Maury River Jordans point and lots of creeks I am a young fisherman
Where’s rock the crawfish fish at, you said that you would do updates on him?
The bait casting reel pen rod sucks but if you get the spinning version it actually works pretty good I got a 15 pound catfish with it.
Finally!! I’ve been waiting for so long
That rod would work well for fishing off bridges
Crawfish hunting was a big part of my childhood
there are lots of smallies largies and sunfish at the James River fishing spot in Glasgow va
I have one of those pen rods and the only way to cast is hand casting. But still, the rod is really fun to mess around with
Pretty sure there's a breaking/bail system on it. Surely it has some cast release button or something.
You should try the one with a spinning reel it's easier to cast...
hi first state fishing I love your videos and have watched ever single video you inspired me to fish every day and catch lots of fish
Best video ever
another great video kid...keep'em coming
I was waiting for this video
Get the one with the spinning reel. Works so much better.
there are lots of sunfish and giant bass at lake tams in Staunton va
I really like this man. Best fisherman in the game!!!!
i love your editing !
Try putting a ice rod spinning reel that should work
The button by the reel is a brake. Press it and then set the hook.
Do a catch clean and cook outside with like a cast iron skillet
