I have purchased some 1 piece bamboo cane poles from academy for $1.86 a peice and after work I'm going to take these superworms I got from petco to a local pond and hit it Huck Fin style. Me and some guys on texas fishing forum are about to start posting pics of fish caught on cane poles. A cane pole club so to speak:)
My primary bluegill pole down at the dock is a bamboo pole. I got mine at a BassPro Shop in Harrisburg, PA for about $4.
It is three sections, each about 5-1/2 feet long. I tied on about 12 feet of 60 lb. mono, and then about 3 feet of 4 lb. leader. I use like a jigging rod with a 2/0 long shank gold (barb smashed) hook that is baited with either white bread or worms from my worm bin. No weights, no bobber, just the hook and line.
It is a killer, and it takes no time to get a meal of bluegill with it.
Great pictures. Yours looks like it works as good as mine.
