Throughout his life, Ike loved to fish. As a boy in Abilene, KS, he could walk to nearby fishing holes with a willow shoot, a length of string, a 5-cent hook from the general store, and worms that he collected from the family garden to fish for a meal or two. As an adult and world hero, Ike was able to use more sophisticated gear and became a fixture on the covers of fishing magazines. Students will make their own DIY casting gear and try their hand at basic casting skills.
