Float fishing outfit in TV comercial ?

Noticed an ad today from some drug on TV where the father talked about missing fishing with his family on a favorite stream because of medical problems.  After seeing him spin the reel during the ad it looked like they were fishing with a pair of Pin outfits.  Was I seeing things if anyone else noticed the ad?

    They have centerpin reels. If you watch carefully. They have fly line on them when the guy attempts to cast it like a regular casting rod. Very funny if you know what you are looking at. But the truth is that, millions of people see this with no idea what's really there.
     I seen this twice yesterday.

    Then thread the float onto the line, through the eye in the bottom of the float. Select two medium sized sinkers [split shot], put one either side of the float, with the float about 18 inches (45 cm) up the line. The sinkers should have a slit cut into them.
