Cane pole rod and reel
I realize it is a contradiction to say cane pole rod and reel, maybe cane rod and reel is more accurate. I've seen advertised in a magazine a rod made from solid, unsplit river cane. It has a rod-type handle and eyes as well as a reel seat. Can anyone provide info or a link to this rod. I suspect that my Sore Lip'em rod will continue to be my favorite but I would like to fish with a rod such as this when I'm not using a cane pole.
I've never seen 'gills the size that I see here. You've raised the bar!

I fished a can pole (no reel at all just line and a float (Bobber) in Michigan... suitable for the size of fish there... rarely over 6 inches... but not here in California... Bluegill 10" PLUS and a cane pole ... not a good idea... when you are catching fish that powerful you need a reel with an excellent drag system or forget it...
