Jerry Zeidler Memorial Cane Pole Derby

The 2022 Cane Pole Derby will be held on Monday, May 30th, at Rose Valley Lake (SOUTH access area). Last year 98 kids participated! The purpose of the derby is to provide kids with an opportunity to enjoy and appreciate the natural resources of the Watershed. The kids have a chance to compete for awards for the largest fish, the most fish caught, and the most trash gathered. Tackle/ bait are provided and many prizes are awarded. Every year local artist Ron Beach designs a patch to commemorate the Derby and each participant will receive a patch. Collectors can purchase the current patch plus patches from previous years. 17 years running so far.......jk

I had access to endless cane poles in Arkansas when I trapped there years back. Don't have cane around our area in Pa.

I thought I would bring some poles back then but always was busy moving along to check and set more traps. Once I stopped traveling down that way I often wished I had brought some good poles back home to work on.

Never used one, or actually saw one until recently. I was on an interstate down here and drove by this old car on the side of the road. There was an old black lady, sitting in a lawn chair by a kind of a small creek. She had a big hat on and a dress and was holding a big cane pole. She looked like she was on her way home from church and stopped to pick up some dinner. For this northern guy, it was a pretty cool sight. I wish I'd stopped to visit. She's probably been stopping there for years.

I have about 2 doz 17-20 ft bamboo poles in the barn I cut for that reason, but haven't done anything with them yet.

There is a lake nearby my place that is loaded with northern pike, a lot of little ones, but some bigger ones too. My neighbor trolls for them with long cane poles and daredevils.
I asked him if he was concerned that a good sized northern might break the pole?
He said if we hook a big one, we let the pole go and chase it with the boat until the fish tires.
It sounded like a blast to me.


I don't care how nice the hand soap smells, you should never walk out of the restroom sniffing your fingers.

never used them for fishing but they make dandy trap stakes for muskrat trapping in a cattail slough.

I highly recommend trying one... make your own though.. it's way cooler to catch your supper with a cane pole that you hand made..
