4" Finesse

Great for most panfish applications. The smaller profile seems most fitting for shorter rods, but it's not uncommon to find anglers putting these on rods as long as 32" as well. Very lightweight and a popular option for those anglers looking to fish in tight quarters.

5" Sweetheart

Our stock-standard panfish handle. This handle offers a lot of versatility and can be used on just about every blank we offer. Both lightweight and effective, this handle works great for both finesse and run-and-gun applications. A go-to for most anglers looking to have a custom rod built.

6" Tennessee

Our stock-standard walleye handle, also a great option for most panfish, perch and walleye outside rods. Measuring 7/8" in diameter at the center of the handle then slightly tapering off on both ends. Another versatile option that will work with most of the blanks we offer.

8" Tennessee

Very similar handle option as the 6" Tennessee but with 2" added. Great for longer outside perch and walleye rods, as well as shorter Professional rods and Dead Sticks. Very common to see this handle used for anglers looking to have rods built for rod holder applications.

11" Tennessee

Our stock-standard handle(s) for most Professional rods. Measuring nearly 1" in diameter at the center of the handle then slightly tapering off on both ends. This handle provides a lot of leverage when fighting larger fish and is great for most applications pertaining to lake trout, pike and other larger gamefish.

6" Stealth (DuraCork)

Featuring a 6" DuraCork contoured handle with a recess for your reel foot that is not only comfortable but also 30% lighter than cork. Equipped with a black outside Recoil guide set wrapped in all black. The Quiverstick Stealth is the lightest most sensitive panfish rod available.

Spinning Reel Seat

An old standby style handle. Particularly popular with larger fish applications, however it can be used on all blank options for those who prefer a reel seat mechanism. Built around a size 16 Fuji spinning reel seat.

Hidden Hood

This is a great option for the cold weather angler who prefers a comfort-fitting reel seat. The top hood is encased in cork (to keep your hand off of metal components) while the rear nut holds reel in place. A versatile option that will work with all the blanks we offer.

Locking Tennessee

A truly custom handle that offers the ability to lock a reel in place yet leaves no components exposed. No more taping if you want you want the full-cork, comfort grip feel. Each handle is lathed out of premium individual cork rings giving you the highest quality of craftsmanship and components. Another option that is available on all of our ice blank options. (Above picture has the handle in an open position to show how the reel attaches. There will not be a gap once the reel is attached to the handle)

Baitcasting Reel Seat

For the angler who prefers using a baitcasting reel while ice fishing. Most popular on our Professional series rods and when targeting larger gamefish. Built around a size 16 Fuji trigger seat.

Standard Inside fuji

Standard Fuji Inside - Standard guide set for most inside rods (other than the Dead Stick and Professional series) but can be used for some outside applications as well. On some options like the Power Noodle, this guide set can get rather small towards the tip of the rod, causing a better chance of freeze-up. However, inside a shelter this guide set will offer a lighter, more sensitive option.

outside fuji

Outside Fuji - Standard guide set for most outside rods (other than Dead Stick and Professional series). This guide option has larger diameter guides than your Inside Standard Fuji which helps reduce freeze-up. A great all-purpose guide for the angler who is spending a lot of time out on the open ice but also plans on sitting inside a shelter from time to time too.

Outside Titanium REC recoil

Outside/Stealth REC Recoil - This guide set uses oversized REC Recoil guides and the tip is a wrapped on REC Recoil guide with a larger diameter than the standard inside option to help reduce freeze up. The lightest outside guide set we offer. Only difference between the Outside REC guide set and the Stealth REC guide set is that the Stealth set is all black in color whereas the Outside set is a metallic silver color. This style guide set comes standard on a Quiverstick XL and Outside Power Noodle.

Stealth Titanium REC recoil

"Black" version of the Outside/Stealth REC Recoil - This guide set uses oversized REC Recoil guides and the tip is a wrapped on REC Recoil guide with a larger diameter than the standard inside option to help reduce freeze up. The lightest outside guide set we offer. Only difference between the Outside REC guide set and the Stealth REC guide set is that the Stealth set is all black in color whereas the Outside set is a metallic silver color. This style guide set comes standard on a Quiverstick XL and Outside Power Noodle.
