Build your new ice rod handle with the lightweight, minimal feel of a Tennessee handle! Tennessee handles typically utilize heat shrink tubing, electrical tape or graphite slip rings to secure your reel, delivering a handle assembly that doesn't require the installation of a reel seet. Mud Hole offers Tennessee ice rod handles in your choice of highly sensitive carbon fiber / woven graphite tubing or the classic "corkalon" EVA foam grip. The top-quality components in these kits will build a rod handle with performance, style, and long-lasting comfort on the ice.

These kits include your choice of 7.75" Corkalon EVA foam with graphite slip rings or 6" Woven Graphite tube with EVA trim rings. Both grips allow you to build a rod handle without the need for an integrated reel seat, eliminating unneccessary weight and simplifying your build.
