Update, we own it now....i just have to get it home....

Previous owners did an amazing job of cleaning it up before the sale, and included 5 totes of "stuff" that we can keep if we like, just need to give the totes back.

Tomorrow afternoon I will figure out the brake controller, and I made a play date for the kids on Saturday so I can make the 200 mile round trip to pick it up, and figure out the wd hitch....undecided on bringing the wife..... �� we are all happy as can be to have the "camper"

I need reccomendation on kids fishing poles....

Congrats!! You'll figure the stuff out quickly I hope, don't fish so can't recommend any brand of pole.

Hope your trip goes well. Make sure you check the lug nut torque and tire pressure. If you have Keep your speed below 65 and stay alert giving yourself extra turning and stopping space.

How old are the kids? If small children just go to Walmart and get one of their kid's outfits. They will outgrow it but it doesn't make sense to spend $100 on some gear that may see one use. I've still got the little green pole and reel that I bought my grandson 20+ years ago sitting behind the door in my closet here at our vacation home. He has moved on to more expensive gear - I keep it "because".

Kids are 6, 5 and another 5 yo. Looking to get exactly what you described. Just hoping to catch some sunfish or something similar. Bobber and worms to start. I just want them to catch something so maybe they get "hooked"

Danny, you keep the thing because some days you'd rather throw the bait caster in the lake and dig out the kids old pink Barbie and Ken matching poles. No backlashes!

Welcome to the Keystone Forum!
Does Zebco still make the "Snoopy" model?
Or you could step up a notch to:

and a reel for it:
