How to Make an Ice Fishing Rod, for Cheep!

This entry was posted in Ice Fishing.


Time tested and true, Our ice fishing rods are over 15 years old, easy to pack and cost very little to make. Supplies that you need:
Old, broken hockey stick (approx 2 feet long with a 45 angle cut on top and base of stopper attached.)
spring door stopper, that screws into the base(stopper spring is attached to wooden dowel)
wooden dowel
2 screw in eyes, (one to guide the line up the stick, one to hold the line at the tip of the wooden dowel)
Old Mitchell fishing real spoil (attached 1/2 way down the hockey stick)
dark color spray paint (for wooden dowel to see better when the fish bite)

Why do they work, the tension on the Mitchell real, can be set to the fishing conditions needed. Mitchell has built top-quality fishing tackle since 1948 almost everyone has an old Mitchell real laying around. They are easy to break down and pack flat in your fishing gear bag. The wood doesn’t freeze up in the cold weather. You can hold a lot of fishing line on the real for Large Northern and Trout. You can keep a jig on it when packing up by poking it into the wood.
