While this is good for thicker line - for my bluegill poles the first thing I do is tear those off and wrap some electrical tape over any nubs on the poles. The line I use for bluegill success is far to thin to wrap around those steel posts without wrecking it.
I just bought some 70-year old line keepers mean for poles and hand lines - these were big out of France down South - or at least the ones I purchased were. This line winder is then attached near the base of the collapsed pole with some handy dandy rubber bands - so i don't retie every time either.
I would say with some of my fine floats it does not pay to keep your rig on the poles because then the float is vulnerable. If your float is durable and big - probably it is too big to best target blue giils. If your line wraps on those steel guides without getting damaged- your line is probably too thick to be the best fishing line for gills.
You're right Johnny. This is why my line wraps are covered with electrical tape and why I use home made floats. The latter are turned on a chuck, fashioned from balsa. Or they are simple stick wagglers. Line 2# terminal end hook line.
When I wrap my main braid is what goes around the holder. The lead hooks into the cork in the end, and I use a rubber band to secure the float.
I would like to find some small line winders. All the reels Ive tried are too big and spoil the balance of the pole.
Thanks guys for all the help. Thank you Jeff, for the great pics, they help alot. The notching the cap idea is great. That is what always bothered me, about keeping line tied to eye. I was worried, with cap on,line would get weak spot. Once again thanks
@ Chris - It sounds like you have the whole thing well in hand. Youve weighted and hung the bamboo, allowing it to season. As far as I know, this is crucial.
I would add some line winders made from paper clips, epoxied to the shafts of the pole. I'd finish the last foot of the tip by painting it white - then a fluorescent color. Finally, Id probably add a fly rod tip-top.
Maybe open up the last chamber section of the bamboo, at the butt, and fit a cork in the end. Then you could use it to store split shot, hooks, a few jigs and swivels... that sort of thing.
You don't need the tip top, Chris. But I think it adds a nice finishing touch. And I add the fluorescent tip to many of my poles and rods... I just finished refurbishing one intended for catfishing, and out now sports a nice fluoro orange tip.
Don't forget the line winders, and good luck!
Had a blast with my telescopic poles today.....Caught 26 gills and a couple bass.....Big fish of the day is pictured.....Good time...If you don't have a telescopic, you ought to get one!
As usual Jeff, how about some details? Were not that far apart, that your general conditions are like mine. I was planning to go tomorrow morning, and would be interested in your technique.
The fish I caught today David were staged in about five to six feet of water @ 56 degrees.....A little stained from overnight/morning rains with the passing cold front so I went with my Berkley Gulp Chartreuse Minnow tipped with a live cricket again....Most fish were caught three to four foot deep today without a split shot, so I was fishing a slow sinking presentation and it was getting hit....
Had a good day with my telescopic rig.....caught some nice Gills, a few Crappie and some bass...The cover I was fishing forced me to use a 10 foot pole so that got interesting on some of the larger Crappie and Largemouth.....Nothing gets your blood pumping more than that big bluegill circling violently after the hook set and you try to figure out when to flip him in the boat....Just a whole lotta' fun to go back to the roots of fishing......I like a challenge and catching the bigger fish on small telescopic rigs provides me just that......It's time to break out your poles!
Been having a blast with the Bream Busters down in South Carolina the last few weeks.....The Durango by Shakespeare and the Shooting Star have been getting a workout.....Been using a 12 footer for cricket fishing and plan to get out the 16 footer for some minnow fishing this week........Enjoy it when you get out there.....I'm definitely Cane Pole Crazy!
That's so cool Jeff. Man, I don't know where you get all your muscles to hold up a 10' pole like that. That's the smile of a master completes his day with wonderful catches.
Larry, the few times I have used any artificials on a cane pole.
I either used a slip bobber set up, or set a jig a few feet below a non slip bobber, I allowed the motion of the water make the jig move. I have never tryed using small spinners on a cane pole.
I have used some small spoon lures and small super duppers
to jig with, it seems like they always get hit when they are fluttering down.
Well I think I got a good deal. This afternoon I had to go to walmart, I went to the sports dept. and I found a 10 ft. B & M Black widow cane pole. marked $7.96
I do not know if this was a good price or not, they wanted $10.96 for a 13 foot pole.I figured well it is only $ 8.00 so what the heck. I have spent more than this to make cane poles before.
Now I have never used a B & M pole before, is there anything I need to know about this pole ?
In my opinion B & M makes a good pole for the money Chris......10 footer is great for gills....you will feel like you're in trouble if a predator gets hooked....difficult to pick up larger fish with the ten footer......not as much an issue from a boat if you're using a landing net......Lots of fun in my humble opinion! I never leave home without my ten footer....really like it when I'm in thick brush and overhanging trees.....let us know how it goes Chris!
I picked up a 13 ft Cabelas Classic Crappie Pole yesterday up at the Cabelas in Hamburg, PA. 11 bucks...looks like it would handle a 3 pound or slightly better largemouth. I might want to be a little careful around docks, where is where I'd like to use it. One private lake I recently got permission to fish this season produced an 8-12 and a 9-8 largemouth last year! Pole busters?
I actually have a handicapped friend who just wants to get out and catch a few bluegills...this may help in getting him on the water and a few fish in his hand
Well, I have been using the 13 ft Cabelas Crappie pole during my kids fishing classes and along with the 10-ft B&M Black Widows we totaled 279 fish in five trips to the local community lake with gills approaching 9 inches and red ears slightly larger. What great, old-fashioned fun this is! Maybe not for everybody, but I have a blast with it. More details coming!
We had a pond on our weekend retreat in SE Ohio, that was only 100 ft. long and 60 ft. wide. Because of the small size I restricted fishing to cane poles only. We had a blast fishing for Bass, Bluegill and Redears this way for 15 years. Now we are on a big lake in SC and have all but forgotten how much fun Canepolen can be.
Really enjoyed the 10 and 12 ft poles when I fished with Jeffrey Abney in the NC blackwaters in late October. They are versatile tools for close-quarters panfishing and he is indeed an expert with them.
Yes John...no reel. And the line is traditionally the same length as the pole or maybe a foot longer. This allows easy lobbing and plopping of bobber/jig/bait combos to all that woody, close quarters lairs of the gills, fliers and crappies.
I made the first homemade collapsible canepole from my bamboo growing in my yard. The ferrules are no.9 from the Mud Hole @$4.00 each. The eye is a piece of stainless wire forced into the tip of the cane, then treaded and glued.
Cool Rick !! Would like to try this .I know where I can get some bamboo. What's the process ,care to outline it here? Is this a two piece cane pole you made ?How long is it . I'm thinking I 'd like to anchor and use a canepole in the lily pads next spring at a nearby lake .
I didn't know you could get the ferrules for making the segments, John. That is cool. The bamboo pole can be too long to be practical without the ability to break it down. I don't mean for fishing, but for toting the thing around!
I've done it in the past, but would also like to hear Ricks procedure. I'll Betty he's got some kinda neat wrinkle for the process.
The ferrules are 9mm. so you can't use a large diameter pole. This pole was only 9 ft. long and about 10mm at mid-length where I made the cut. Let it dry out then shave it down to just fit into the ferrule then tap it down as far as it will go. My next pole will be 10 ft. These are thin so only good for pan fish. I have bought made in China poles that are thicker and come in three sections, so somebody must carry larger ferrules.
Ive seen the manufactured ones as long as I've been in the South, Rick. They are pretty much a staple of every tackle shop once the winter passes. Usually not expensive, either. I think the practical limit for a cane pole is probably around 12 ft. I cant think of any I've seen that are much longer. They are not light in weight and the longer they are the more the heft gets to be a drag.
Did you open up the butt of your pole for storage? I always cut out the webbing in the corm at the butt to open the last section of the cane. Then I fit a wooden plug in the opening. This way the hollow butt section is converted to a handy "tackle box", where you can keep a few hooks, sinkers and what-nots.
Hi, I'm Marion Watts and new here. I live in rural SW Virginia, but was SC born and bred. I'm a "back to roots" type of guy and am a cane pole man. I look forward to getting to know y'all and share ideas and experiences.
Welcome Marion......I'm "cane pole crazy in North Carolina" but lived in the Low Country many years and still get back often visiting family and occasionally work..Telescopics is my favorite way to get the gills.......look forward to your input to the group!
Welcome - YES! Telescopic poles are an amazing gift. If you haven't fished a telescopic or cane pole, your life is unfulfilled. Good stuff on the way - let's get this cane pole section going crazy!! That said, there is still a good 22" of ice in my way on my ponds... ugh. I can always make rigs.
Some of the newer Japanese telescopic poles are 100% carbon fiber and weigh about one to two oz. I have done nothing but fish fixed line poles for the last two years. The precise placement of the bait as well as the direct connection with the fish is amazing . The lighter poles allow for more active fishing.
That is a paste pole used to catch tiny carp as in goldfish bowl-sized carp. These are extremely whippy unless you are paying substantially for them. Their whip is extremely slow - but they are fun, just not the best gill-catching gear. Gills fast - slow action, big bend = advantage tough lips.
I fished one of these carp competitions where they use these mostly 2.5 meter poles (very thin too- also tough on the hands). Of course, 145 Chinese competitors were fishing those - I fished the 12.5 meter pole. They caught more fish - we caught far bigger fish and greater weight for the same time period.
When they fish that style, they sit less than a meter apart on tiny cooler boxes and they fish two hooks with some paste. It was amazing watching them roll the tiny pea-sized paste balls to the hook in one motion - baiting one hook and then the second with one hand in about 4 seconds. Their game was to either wait until they had two fish on the hook or set the hook and land only one fish. Greedy or not? To fast, too slow? Should have gone for one fish instead of waiting for two- now you lost both...
The pole shown is a Kiyotaki Keiryu pole and it manages fish up to 12-14 inches. Trust me, it's not a gold fish pole and retails for about $80.00. More in common with high end european whips, just less weigh. I have tanago poles, they are designed for small carp and bitterling. BTW, tanago poles work great for 2-3 inch gills in the margins. My goal of fishing is a bit different. I'm looking for the smallest fish. Last summer, I was able to get myself down to a 1.25 inch fish. I have attached a photo of my average catch . The concept is called micro fishing
I didn't mean goldfish as an insult. The competitions I attended in China they would fish for these small carp (thinner than goldfish) but silver instead of orange.
Price doesn't equal species for poles. Also I am not saying this is bad. The thin butt of the pole matches the same poles they were using in competition where a European whip would be 2 - 4x as thick as this at the handle - it would be faster.
I whip fish a lot, it is my thing. The other difference with fishing to the Far East is that they use very tall marked floats with really long antennae, so long they are sometimes longer than our entire floats. I have seen these floats try to make their way into our market but the antennae are exclusively built for the paste and small bait presentations and they don't function well for us.
I do like your concept of micro fishing. Have you made your own bloodworm with X-Acto yet? I catch river shiners with this method.

Hi all. Im new to the group.
I have been thinking about makeing my own bamboo pole.
Last fall I got a few peices of bamboo, all of them about 16 foot.
They have been hanging by the tip end with some weights on the bottom end.So they would dry nice and stright.
I was thinking about makeing a couple of them in different lenghts.
Has anyone made their own bamboo poles ?
anyone have any suggestions ?
TIA

Thanks for the advise David. I was not sure what type of tip I was going to use.
I like the idea of painting the tip end, make it easer to see.
I was going to trim the bottom when I cut the poles to lenght
and just leave it open. I like the idea of makeing it into a small compartment.

I echo the comments here, Chris. The B&M is a good pole; they're all made in China, anyway, at that price.
