The Hell With Fish Finders: We’re Getting a Transparent Canoe
By Tom Chandler on Sep 7, 2007 in Underground Entertainment
Imagine gliding over the crystal clear mountain lake in your transparent canoe (made from the same stuff used in jet fighter canopies). Peering through the bottom, you can see the monstrous Brook Trout swimming around below you. Catching them is as easy as dropping that olive wooly bugger over the side.
Is this heaven on earth?
No! It’s the transparent canoe, a product so un-revolutionary that the manufacturer had to put a early naked woman in the picture to get any media attention at all.
Still, for those of you embracing the monster brook trout fantasy — who have $1599 to burn — you can buy your jet-fighter canoe at Hammacher Schlemmer.

Funny, I was just thinking about what it might be like to be a Brook trout in the vicinity of such a fine specimen. I think I’m getting old.

Well, we’ve always been told to “Think like a fish.”
