Fishing Pole Making Class

Make Your Own Fishing Pole!

Today we have special guests from USW ICD. Sean Hayden (Executive Director) and Korey Fiste (Senior Program Specialist) flew in to check out our class! They are taking in how we run the class and how popular the class has become.  https://www.icdlearning.org/home

Today this class is at The Barn in North Albany 2/9/20. We have a full class of steelworkers from both locals (6163/7150) working on their Lamiglas poles. Currently on Class 2 out of 4, only 2 classes are required for making two Trout fishing poles. The Best of the two poles will be a donation rod to our local communities’ auctions.

Class 3 and 4 costs 100$ for a custom Lamiglas fishing pole. First you will make your own custom cork handle with any design you create with the diverse inventory of cork rounds. You will build and glue the cork, then sand for a perfect taper and fitment. Your choices of rods are Trout, Steel head/Salmon or Fly-fishing Lamiglas blanks.

*Note* If you want to build an offshore fishing pole you can for an additional cost for the pole.
