1. A heated fishing pole assembly for inhibiting the formation of ice on line guides of a fishing pole, said assembly comprising:
a fishing pole having a handle and a rod extending away from said handle, said fishing pole having a plurality of line guides being distributed along said rod;
a cap being removably attachable to said handle, said cap having a power knob being rotatably integrated into said cap, said power knob being rotatable between an on position and an off position;
a handle heating element being integrated into said handle of said fishing pole, said handle heating element being in thermal communication with said handle such that said handle heating element heats said handle when said handle heating element is turned on wherein said handle heating element is configured to inhibit the formation of ice on said handle;
a rod heating element being integrated into said rod of said fishing pole, said rod heating element being integrated into each of said plurality of line guides, said rod heating element being in thermal communication with each of said plurality of line guides, said rod heating element heating each of said plurality of line guides when said rod heating element is turned on wherein said rod heating element is configured to inhibit the formation of ice on said plurality of line guides, said rod heating element being in electrical communication with said handle heating element;
a power indicator being integrated into said rod, said power indicator being in electrical communication with each of said handle heating element and said rod heating element thereby facilitating said power indicator to indicate a power level of each of said handle heating element and said rod heating element;
wherein said handle has a distal end with respect to said rod, said distal end having a battery well extending toward said rod, said battery well having a lateral bounding surface and a lower bounding surface, said lateral bounding surface having threads extending from said distal end toward said lower bounding surface;
wherein said assembly includes a first electrical contact being integrated into said lower bounding surface of said battery well;
wherein said assembly includes a second electrical contact being integrated into said distal end of said handle, said second electrical contact surrounding said battery well;
a power supply being insertable into said battery well in said handle, said power supply having a primary electrical contact and a secondary electrical contact, said primary electrical contact being in electrical communication with said first electrical contact when said power supply is inserted into said battery well;
wherein said cap includes a plug extending away from a front end of said cap, said plug having an outer surface being threaded, said battery well in said distal end of said handle insertably receiving said plug having said outer surface threadably engaging said threads in said lateral bounding surface of said battery well;
wherein cap has a third electrical contact being integrated into said front end of said cap, said third electrical contact surrounding said plug, said third electrical contact being in electrical communication with said second electrical contact when said plug is threaded into said battery well;
wherein said power knob is rotatably disposed on a back end of said cap, said power knob being electrically coupled to said third electrical contact;
wherein said plug has a spring extending away from said plug, said spring being comprised of an electrically conductive material, said spring abutting said secondary electrical contact on said power supply when said plug is threaded into said battery well, said spring being electrically coupled to said power knob.
