Has anyone built a push pole for flats fishing? I was checking out a carbon sleeve supplier and it got me thinking. I appreciate any input. Thx

Yes I did years ago from a tube Lamiglas had on sale, may have been originally designed for building oars, but the parts fit. Used to pole through lilly pads, etc. much quieter than moving through the stuff with a trolling motor or paddle.

Nice if you put a duck bill on the end of the push pole to help to keep the pole from pushing so far into the mud.
