Ice fishing is growing increasingly popular each year as a means of continuing to connect with nature while also experiencing the excitement of reeling in a catch.
Ice fishing is different from other types of fishing in that it does not need casting, thus anglers do not need to worry about carrying along lengthy fishing rods. To get you started, it is advised that you buy two distinct rod-and-reel combinations as your first purchase of fishing gear. When fishing for panfish, a model that is lighter and maneuverable is your best bet. A length of around 28 inches with a quick-action tip is considered to be typical. Your second combination should consist of a rod with a medium action since this is the best choice for fishing for walleye, small trout, and pike. Try to get a rod that is between 28 and 30 inches in length and has a strong backbone across the lower two-thirds of the length.
You should look for an ice fishing rod that has a handle grip that can be held comfortably even when it is very cold and that allows you to feel the movement of the fish. Handle grips made of high-grade cork perform quite well. They are sensitive to the vibrations of the ice fishing pole, and they have a tendency to warm up very rapidly when exposed to the heat of the angler's body.
