4H Fishing Rod Building

[Auggie]

I’ve been making fishing rods for nearly 20 years. Over Christmas break, our 4-H club built ice fishing rods and then headed to the lake to test them out—with success all around.

A few years ago, I wrote and received a grant from North Dakota Game and Fish to create a shareable “trunk” of rod-building components, allowing 4-H clubs across the state access to rod-building kits. Since then, our club has also built summer rods.

This is just an FYI—if you’re interested in youth rod building and 4-H, there are resources available. Please feel free to reach out with questions, and I’d be happy to point you in the right direction.

That is pretty sweet. I find myself kind of wanting to make a rod.
