How to Tell Fish From Rocks

6/23/2016

 
You already know that I'm no fan of golf, but I don't cotton much to the idea of fishing, either. At least with fishing you get to sit down and there is probably a beer nearby. I don't eat fish and don't like them as a rule, so fishing is definitely not the "sport" for me.

I don't blame a fisherman for wanting to cheat a little by using a sonar device like the Lo-K-Tor (clever name!) I'm sure it cuts the fun, fun fishing time in half. This wheel helps you work out what's going on under your boat. In fact, it's packed with information for the angler. Did you know that the world record weight for a Muskie is 69 pounds? Or that there's a fish called a crappie? Yee gods!

This thing also reviews some popular lures, like the Weedless Spoon, which "... offers the same tempting wobble-action of other spoons....A small strip of pork rind magnifies its appeal." Or how about the Vibrating that "... Sets up an underwater commotion that spells sure-fire appeal to marauding lunkers." I think this is a world I don't wish to inhabit.

This wheel is six inches square and of a very sturdy cardboard. The date shown is 1972, long after waterproof plastic was invented.
