waterwolf Posted December 15, 2009 Report Posted December 15, 2009 having a hard time locating steel ice fishing rods made by zebco/shakespeare. tried everywhere i can think of south of barrie to no avail. if anyone has seen 'em somewhere , i'd apppreciate the heads up. gta is my neck o' the woods but will travel to get my hands on a couple. cheers
Spiel Posted December 15, 2009 Report Posted December 15, 2009 Have you checked CTC? While I haven't been into my local CTC lately they have had them in the past.
johnnyb Posted December 15, 2009 Report Posted December 15, 2009 Got my last one at LeBaron's ... that's gotta be close to 10 years ago...still have it and love it Maybe try calling around to the smaller guys? Angling specialties comes to mind...he has some interesting ice gear at times...
irishfield Posted December 15, 2009 Report Posted December 15, 2009 Just out of CTC.. they have the Rapala ones with the little reel on them.. but are now fiberglass and the two pronged one is now white plastic. The only thing with steel on it was something called the super rod. It had a normal type rod with a single eye at the end.. and then a flappy spring steel leaf a bit longer than the rod that had an eye in the end of that..
vinnimon Posted December 16, 2009 Report Posted December 16, 2009 I picked mine up at either lebarons or fishing world,Black foam handle marked special 8.99.no names on it,but great for the pike.If you want it,i used 2 times 8.99 no tax, you pick up the rod.orig price tag on it.
misfish Posted December 16, 2009 Report Posted December 16, 2009 I remember the ones you are talking about.The last time I seen them, was at CTC,about 3 years ago.
tjsa Posted December 16, 2009 Report Posted December 16, 2009 It was Rhino brand that CTC sold. It appears they do not have the stainless steel line of rods any more. I have had one for 6 yrs, its great. See the pdf below for the entire Rhino lineup: http://www.rhinofishing.com/Rhino2008.pdf
limeyangler Posted December 16, 2009 Report Posted December 16, 2009 Hey waterwolf, i'm pretty sure my local tackle shop carries them, i definitely saw them in either Cabelas or wholesale sports in Winnipeg. If ya like i could see what we could arrange to get one to ya if i do find them, i realise we are a ways away from each other...but where there's a will eh?
waterwolf Posted December 17, 2009 Author Report Posted December 17, 2009 thanks folks for all your help, vinnimon has one and will try lebarons for a second {or maybe even a 3rd] great site , great members . thanks again
