This is a very common handle. Some gaffs at the "stick" end will have a 90' bend that goes into a hole drilled in the stick. From there you can wrap ss trolling wire around both handle and gaff. I used a bit of fiberglass tape and resin. Use whatever you have around the mancave. It is getting harder to find regular wooden hockey sticks lately. All the kids want the new composites which are stiff and wicked light.

I also make great bluefish poppers out of hockey sticks.
