Why is one of his arms coming out of the fishing pole? Or is that some odd detail on the pole?

That's not a fishing pole. It's a shape shifting penis.

He's missing an arm, the fishing pole and that arm are part of his shapeshifting penis

Probably. Never seen one that looks like that, though. Usually they're drawn in bumps all up the pole, not just at the bottom.

That's the reel.

if he has the arm lowered and just uses his forearm to hold the fishing pole, the upper arm isnt visible

What's this thing? It's not a background detail. My best guess is it's supposed to be a reel or part of the fishing line, but it looks very strange.

i am still pretty sure its the arm

It's the reel.

It's also in the second panel, though.

Ah

I looked it up and it looks like slack on a fly reel

I haven't gone fishing in a long while
