Making an Old-Fashioned Cane Pole for Fishing

A summer spent by the banks of the river lazily relaxing in the summer sun, soaking up the heat, the humidity, and the vitamin D. The memories of easy days aren’t complete without an old-fashioned cane pole for fishing with and a prize fish to bring home for dinner. Cane poles have been around for a couple hundred years.

A cane pole, some worms …isn’t it amazing how, when you reduce life to its basic elements, it doesn’t take much to make us happy? pic.twitter.com/LCh3wHqUJ8 — Traces of Texas (@TracesofTexas) September 27,
