Jason Mitchell rod


Recommended Posts

I would like to welcome Jason Mitchell rods as a new sponsor in the HSO open water program. With the huge success of Jasons ice rod line up, I'm sure many will enjoy using Jason's open water rods.

Jason Mitchell Elite Series Rods announces that the company will sponsor Fishing Minnesota (www.fishingminnesota.com) open water program. A popular internet site where anglers gather to exchange up to date and cutting edge fishing information. Jason Mitchell Elite Series Rods has quickly earned a reputation for building some of the most advanced species specific and application specific ice rods and now offers some of the most advanced open water walleye fishing rods in the industry. "We enjoy working with Fishing Minnesota and value the feedback we receive from their knowledgable field staff," explains company president Jason Mitchell. This company continues to turn heads in the fishing industry by staying ahead of the curve. An example is last winter's lake trout ice rod that featured a spiral wrapped guide system. Other examples include a unique telescoping slip bobber rod and fourteen foot trolling rod. There are also lots of rumors floating about some really cutting edge stuff that will be available this upcoming winter for ice rods. Find out more at http://www.jasonmitchellrods.com.

Congrats and welcome (back) to Jason Mitchell Rods.

I really enjoyed the JM ice rods this winter. The price was right, the rod was great and the one time I needed customer service it was top notch!!

I've got my eyes on that slip bobber rod and the 9ft trolling rod. Those Mille Lacs walleyes won't know what hit them, but I'll feel the hit.

These rods are definately the real deal for the serious walleye angler. I used the open water rods extensively last season from jigging to rigging to bottom bouncing and to slip bobbering. With that, I was very impressed by how sensitive the blanks were and how well the rods balanced for all presentations.

My favorite is the 7'6" ML. This rod did all duties from rigging, to pitching jigs, dead sticking, and even slip bobbering (For you Mille Lacs riggers, this longer rod is dynamite with long snells)!!!

And now with the addition of more trolling rods along with the slip bobber rod, the Elite Series summer rods have something for any and all anglers.

    • yes sorry for your loss..  our dogs are always special...
    • Truly sorry to hear that duffman! I know that feeling.  Keep the good memories  
    • Chamois passed away this weekend a couple days short of her 13th bday. What a great dog to hang out with here at home and on distant adventures. Gonna miss ya big time my little big girl.
    • Sounds pretty sweet, alright. I will check them out, thanks.
    • If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.
    • Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...
    • Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?
    • We have bought a new boat, which we will be picking up this spring. It is an Alumacraft Competitor 165 sport with a 90 horse Yamaha motor. I will be buying and installing a trolling motor,  wondering if I can get some recommendations on what pound thrust I will want for this boat?  Also, I will be selling my old boat, is there a good way to determine the value on an older boat ( mid-80's with a 75 horse 2-stroke  Mariner motor)  I will appreciate any help with these questions.
