How to choose the right fishing rod for yourself?

Before buying a fishing rod, it is necessary to determine the length of the fishing rod purchased, whether to buy a long fishing rod of more than one meter or a short fishing rod with a length of about 600 mm. Don't underestimate the importance of these interfaces. In the intensive fish competition, you need to hit the rod and lift the rod thousands of times a day, even if you only add a few grams of weight on the rod, the labor intensity will make a big difference. The advantage of the short-section pole is that it is easy to carry, whether it is placed in the basket or in the pole bag, or even tied horizontally to the back hanger of the bicycle, which will not have much impact. The disadvantage of short section bar is that there are more interfaces, not only the force is not as uniform as that of long section bar, but also the weight of short section bar is higher than that of long section bar under the premise of the same length.

In contrast, longer rods are prone to injury. To illustrate the problem, two poles of different lengths were attached to a basket hanging from the back of the bike, and the bike suddenly fell to the ground, with the long pole receiving some serious damage. The reason is simple, the speed of the two bicycles landing is the same, the speed of movement of the top of the two rods is not the same, the movement radius of the long rod is greater than the part of the short rod, therefore, the movement speed is much higher than the short rod, the impact of the long part of the rod is mainly, the top of the long rod is easy to fall. Brand and price For a competitive angler, brand and price is a very important issue because it is related to their face, but also related to their ranking. Competitive fishing rods are carbon rods, its price contains two major factors, one factor is the brand, the other factor is the material and process. Competitive fishing rods have high weight requirements, and under the premise of ensuring hardness, the lighter the weight, the better. The material used to make the carbon rods is carbon cloth, which is divided into different grades. The higher the grade of the material, the lighter the weight and the higher the price, so the price of the rod is high.

The tournament has strict restrictions on the length of the rod, the championship allows the use of rods basically 3.6 meters, 4.5 meters, 5.4 meters of these three, each length is equipped with two kinds of soft and hard basic enough, in contrast, the number of recreational anglers equipped with rods is less than competitive anglers. For a recreational angler, brand and price compared to brand is not very important, the price occupies the forefront.

Every recreational angler is constantly buying and eliminating rods, and there are many recreational anglers who own dozens of rods. Especially for those who have decades of fishing experience, every length and hardness of fishing rod is basically equipped. For each trip, you'll want to bring several sticks of different lengths, choosing the right length for the water.
