A great way to pass a few minutes for sure. We have fishing water all over Minneapolis; so I keep a couple of rods in the back seat rigged for casting and an ice rod rigged for jigging docks, all with plastic tails of one sort or another and a full box of a variety of plastics besides. No better way to take a break when running errands. I have stopped fishing on my way home from the supermarket though. I got into a hot bite and before I knew it the ice cream had melted all over the trunk!
