Shop Early to Ensure Holiday Delivery

12-15-2021 Shipping Update:

The holiday season is upon us! This is just a friendly reminder that today, Wednesday, December 15th, is the final day to guarantee delivery by December 24th using FedEx Ground shipping. Make sure to place your custom rod building orders to guarantee that your gifts are under the tree in time!

After tomorrow (starting 12/16), FedEx does offer additional expedited shipping options.  See below for FedEx cut-off dates. And, if you're in a pinch and looking for a great gift that doesn't require shipping, Mud Hole also offers Gift Cards that can be downloaded and printed at home!

And, you can always give the gift of rod building with one of our in-person or online Rod Building Classes.  Taught by our experienced, professional rod building instructors, the classes include everything you need to build a custom fishing rod - from the tools, components, and supplies to the personal, interactive, live instruction. There are classes for beginners and for experienced builders looking for a specific application. This is the perfect gift for the angler or rod builder on your list.

We hope you find everything you need this holiday season.  If you have any questions, please call us, toll free, at 1-866-790-7637.  We're here to help!
