Fishing rods

Thereare several fishing products in a fishing tackle box and on the market today but some fishing enthusiasts say that a fishing rod is one of the top fishing secrets.

Fishing rods have characteristics that are not typical of the more primitive split cane rods. Modern fishing rods contain reels, which aid in the retrieval of fish caught.

Types of fishing rods and Specifications.A typical fishing rod measures 6 and 16 feet (2 and 5 m) and vary in capability to tolerate strain while fishing.
The length of the fishing rod has a lot to do with withstanding force exerted by the fish to the fishing rod and determines for the most part the performance of rods used for angling.

Split Cane fishing rods are one of the smallest and less sophisticated fishing rods in fishing.
It is usually made of bamboo or other elastic material with the most basic line attached to it

.Unlike other more complex fishing rods, split cane fishing rods do not usually contain reels or its equivalent to be used for reeling in or retrieving fish caught on bait.

Graphite fishing rods are the most popular today. They can be used either for heavyweight or lightweight fish although they were proven best for trout, walleye and bass fish. They vary in measurements from 5 and 7 feet (1.5 and 2.5 m).

Spinning fishing rods are commonly used in bass fishing competition accounting for their flexibility and tolerance to stress. They accommodate bigger and tougher fishing lines and stabilize them to avoid line tangles during uncoiling of float lines.

You could miss the big one so take your time when selecting tackle from your fishing tackle box

Jigging fishing rods.These rods are best for heavy fishing lures and baits especially when reaching around 150 to 200 feet under the ocean surface. They are made of fine, solid materials which accounts to their heaviness.

The use of jigging fishing rods is specifically due to alternating currents while fishing. Some oceans have erratic undersea currents and that is why the bait and fishing lines should be kept in place.

Fishing lures are also disturbed and cause confusion among fish if the lines are not long and heavy enough to with stand and tolerate water currents under the sea.

These rods are best for target fishes usually found dwelling at the bottom of the sea.
