Pen Fishing Rod (£17.99)
You've never got a fishing rod on you when you want one. Oh how we remember all those times strolling along the banks of the Limpopo, when up pops the fin of a marlin, or perhaps we hear the splash of a leaping sword-fish, and darn it if we've forgotten a fishing rod. If only we'd had a Pocket Fishing Rod to hand? Of course marlin and swordfish are not fresh-water fish and we've never been to the Limpopo, but it sounded more appealing than watching a dead perch floating in the Grand Union Canal. We're getting off the point somewhat (again!). Ok, this clever little gadget is about the size of a large marker pen at only eight inches long, and yet opens up to become an aluminium alloy 4ft fishing rod, complete with a left and right handed reel (packed separately), a 5lb breaking strain line, and even includes a triple hook spinner. Never again will you be caught short when you spot a fish rise, and it's small enough to carry with you everywhere!
Please note: To cast the Pocket Fishing Rod line you need to pull some slack from the reel. The reel will not automatically cast just by flicking the rod.
- A 4ft fishing rod that compacts into a slimline case, designed to look like a large pen.
- The rod has a minituarised reel with a switchable rachet ideal for left and right handers.
- The rod has a line brake and line fastener for exceptional stability.
- The rod itself is made from aluminium alloy.
- The line has a breaking-strain of 2.5kg.
- A triple hook and spinner are included.
- Suitable for ages 14 years+.
- Size: 22 x 1.5 x 1.5cm (in 'pen' form).
The camera on your iPhone is great (just like everything else on it, eh acolytes?), but when it comes to zoom, it could do with a little helping hand. Luckily, the iPhone Lens and Tripod set, in white, is here to sort out any zooming inadequacies you might have. It is, as you might well imagine, an attachment for your iPhone that allows you to zoom in with 8x magnification. Wow!
Not only that, but you can make any 'real' photographers weep over the money they spent on their flashy tripods and accessories - this baby's loaded with gubbins to enhance your photos. A dinky tripod to get it steady, a clamp to stick the lens onto your phone in the first place and a nice cover to finish the whole package off and make your iPhone look even more camera-like than before. The lens itself has a field view of a whopping 246 meters and is fully adjustable, meaning that no matter what you're attempting to snap, it'll be brought into focus and eminent clarity.
So if that exotic bird in the distance (obviously we mean the avian kind, who do you think we are?) is proving a little too far away for your iPhone's camera to get a handle on, simply pop it on the tripod, whack on the lens and watch it come to life on your screen. An essential gadget for photography nuts and iPhone lovers alike.
