27 hard years of guiding have earned Paul Nelson a Doctorate in Ice Fishing. A thinking man’s-man, he gets inside the heads of predator fish, extracts their deepest secrets, and then performs a mental dissection of their environment.  That sort of critical thinking goes into everything he does - the design and performance of this pike and walleye rod included.

• Stiff backbone for heavy bites
• Smooth setting fiberglass blank

Freshwater beasts of burden they are, those hulking and tireless trout. Trout-head Eric Haataja is equally tireless. He gets his kicks taming their power, be they lakers, browns or steelhead. The full-time guide not only has to outthink them, but also wield a weapon worthy of taming their tenacity. So he went to Frabill and said, “Here, make this.” They did.         

• Soft glass rod plays big fish on light line
• Super-long to power sweeping hooksets

If Canada crowned a King of Ice Fishing, Frabill's Jeff "Gussy" Gustafson would be on the shortlist of contenders. In fishing circles he's known as "Gussy." To the fishing masses, he's known for his ability ot shadow sinister predators. And when Gussy comes nose to fangs with a naturally fed, but seemingly steroid-stuffed pike, lake trout, bass or off-the-charts walleye, his gear must be up to the task. Gussy's 38" heavy-duty tames titans and demolishes demons. Learn More

They call him the "Ice Troller" - Tony Roach - an unflappable, essentially manic hole-driller who'll punch openings to eternity to locate pods of walleyes and jumbo perch for clients. Once fish are found, an angler of that mindset must pay a visit ot them with precision and tenacity as well. That means unsheathing a specialized rod, and for 'eyes and jumbos, it's his namesake 27" medium-light. Learn More

 Walt & Poppee are as contemplative as a bull bluegill. They would rather sit across the table from such a broad-shouldered bruiser and pick its brain than to have it on a platter and pick through its bones. The father and son team compiled everything they know about beating 'gills and present it to you in the form of an ice rod.  Designed for feeding small jigs to finicky panfish, this is the best shallow water, light-line rod you'll ever own.
