So...I ask you this. When we were kids we would get a stick with a string and bend a pin and put a worm on it or someone had a hook. Do kids still do that?

I was born after the Revolutionary war, so no snarky comments.
It's sad because kids today are into hand held electronics instead of enjoying the outdoors. The fishing kids use closed face push button reels & fiberglass rods such as Zebco. Great starter outfit for young & old & far more advanced than a stick, string & bent pin. Price range is around $25.
