Ice Fishing Assassin

Hookset Ice Assassin Series Ice Fishing Rod

34" | Fast Action | Medium-Light Power

There is nothing standard about the performance of this rod. The Hookset Assassin is a Versatile Series rod, built on a 34" medium-light full carbon blank that delivers an incredible balance of sensitivity and power—making it one of the most adaptable ice rods you can fish.

Designed to detect the lightest bites while still providing dependable backbone, this rod excels in situations where precision matters. The ultra-responsive carbon construction transmits subtle pickups instantly, allowing anglers to react quickly, while the powerful mid-section gives you the strength needed when it's time to drive the hook home.

Originally developed for targeting jumbo perch and crappie with heavier jigs and tungsten presentations, this blank has quickly gained a reputation among serious anglers as an exceptional walleye rod. Its versatility makes it equally effective for a wide range of techniques, from finesse jigging to working small spoons and jigging minnows.

Simply put, this rod is built to do it all beneath the ice.

Each Hookset rod is expertly handcrafted and precision balanced, combining premium components and professional rod-building techniques to deliver exceptional performance, durability, and comfort during long days on the ice.
