		How short? And what are you going for? Lakers,  burbot, koks?  Custom rods or main manufacturer's?  Custom, jim William's now outsources his to a guy in Idaho I think he said on another post. 45" custom lake trout rod. I own 3 of jim Williams rods. Thorn bros makes a variety of lengths up to 48" for lakers.  I use a dave gentz 36" split handle MH gor bubot. There are a ton of laker ice rods out there.  [fishon] [signature]

		I can build you one, take a look at the rod building board and you can see some of my work. I’ve been building rods for over 30 years now. [signature]

		Remember:  Unless you're fishing inside a shack, your summer rod will work. [signature]

		Good point. I often use a 4'6" ultralight for other fish. Not saying it's ideal for macks but the length works fine on the ice. [signature] 
The older I get the more I would rather be considered a good man than a good fisherman.

		I also build mack jigging rods they are about 50" long and will handle anything from the Gorge. I spiral wrap the guides and build on a upper end blank.  I live in the Ogden area and would be happy to show them to you. [signature] |
