In the video, a person is holding a fishing rod with a reel attached to it. The reel is black and gold in color and has the words "PENN 850" written on it. The person is holding the rod with their left hand and the reel with their right hand. The background is blurred, but it appears to be an outdoor setting with grass and a sidewalk visible. The person seems to be demonstrating how to use the reel, possibly for beginners.
