A fishing line is a long, flexible trunk used to catch fish. At its simplest, the fishing rod is a simple pole stick or pole attached to a line that ends in a hook (formerly known as angle , hence the term fishing). The length of the stem can vary between 2 and 20 feet (0.61 and 6.10 m). To attract fish, bait or bait will be impaled on one or more hooks attached to the line. These lines are generally stored on rolls that reduce tangles and help fish landings.
Traditionally the rods are made of bamboo, while contemporary rods are usually made of fiberglass or carbon fiber. In contrast to nets, which are commonly used in subsistence and commercial fisheries, fishing lines are more commonly used in recreational fishing and competitive casting. Fishing rods come in different sizes, actions, lengths and configurations depending on whether they will be used for small, medium or large fish or in different freshwater or fresh water situations. Different types of fishing poles are designed for certain types of fish. The flying shaft is used to cast artificial flies, spinning rods and casting rod bait designed to throw bait or bait. Ice fishing poles are designed to lure through small holes in ice-covered lakes. Trolling rods are designed to pull the bait or bait behind the moving boat.

Histori
Seen by stone inscriptions since 2000 BC, fishing back to ancient Egypt, China, Greece, Trinidad and Tobago, Rome and medieval England.
Fishing
The art of fly fishing took a big leap forward after the British Civil War, where a newfound interest in the activity left a trail on the many books and treatises written on the subject at the time. The famous officer in the Parliamentary army, Robert Venables, published in 1662 The Experienced Angler, or Angling improved, became a common fishing discourse, instilled many of the most appropriate ways and experiments were chosen to take most types of fish in ponds or rivers . Complete Angler was written by Izaak Walton in 1653 (though Walton continued to add it for a quarter of a century) and described the fishing in Derbyshire Wye. It is a celebration of art and the spirit of fishing in the form of prose and poetry; six verses quoted from John Dennys earlier. The second part of the book was added by Walton's friend, Charles Cotton.
The 18th century is primarily an era of consolidated techniques developed in the previous century. Running rings begin to appear along the line, which gives the anglers greater control over the plaster line. The wand itself is also becoming increasingly sophisticated and specialized for different roles. Joint trunks became common from mid-century and bamboo was used for the top of the stem, giving it much greater strength and flexibility.
The industry has also become commercialized - rods and tackles sold in men's clothing stores. After the Great Fire of London in 1666, craftsmen moved to Redditch which became the center of production of fishery-related products from the 1730s. Onesimus Ustonson founded his trading shop in 1761, and his founding remained as the market leader for the next century. He received the Kingdom Order and became the official supplier of fishing for three successive kings which began with King George IV during this period.
Technology upgrade
The impact of the Industrial Revolution was first felt in the manufacture of the flying path. Instead of anglers twisting their own line, a tiring and time-consuming process, the new textile spinning machines allow a variety of pointy lines to be easily produced and marketed.
The material used for the rod itself changed from the original heavy wood to the UK, becoming lighter and more elastic varieties imported from abroad, mainly from South America and the West Indies. Bamboo sticks became the preferred choice from the mid-19th century, and some strips of material were cut from sticks, milled into shapes, and then glued to form light, strong, hexagonal rods with a solid core that was superior to anything. which precedes them.
Other materials used are Tonkin bamboo Calcutta reeds, ash wood, hickory, ironwood, maple, lancewood, or malacca cane. These products are light, tough, and supple. The stem is generally made in three parts called the buttocks, the middle part of the body, and the tip. The stumps are often made of maple, on a boring basis; These hoes survive several peaks. The middle part is generally made of ironwood because the wood is thicker and stronger. Tips are generally made of bamboo for its elasticity that can throw baits further and more accurately. Handles and grips are generally cork, wood, or rattan wrapped. There are many different types of glue that unite these parts, the most common glue and bone glue from Ireland. This is until the hilton glue, or cement glue, is introduced for its waterproof qualities. Even today, the stem-bamboo rods of Tonkin are still popular in fishing.
Until the mid-1800s rods were generally made in England. This changed in 1846 when an American Samuel Phillippe introduced the first six imported strips of Calcutta sugarcane made in Bavaria where Phillippe imported the violin he graduated as his own handwork. The split-cane cane was then produced independently after Phillippe began selling imported sticks to a New York retailer and then copied by Charles Orvis, Hiram Leonard and Britain's William Hardy in the 1870s and mass production methods made these rods accessible to the public. Horton Manufacturing Company first introduced all the steel rods in 1913. These rods are heavy and flexible and do not satisfy many customers. The next big event in the fishing line was the introduction of fiberglass rods in the 1940s and was developed by Robert Gayle and Mr. Mcguire.
Boron and graphite rods appeared around the 1960s and 1970s when the United States and Great Britain invested heavily in research to develop new technologies. Hewitt and Howald were the first to come by putting the fibers into a fishing pole by wrapping them around a balsa wood. However, in 1977, boron fiber technology has been littered with cheaper and less competitive graphite materials in the market.
Rods for tourists are made with nickel-silver metal joints, or ferrules, which can be inserted into each other to form stems. Some of them are made to be used as walking sticks until needed for sport. Since the 1980s, with the advent of flexible, but rigid graphite graphite, travel bar technology has been highly developed, and multi-piece travel trucks that can be transported in luggage or backpacks are a big part of the market.
Maps Fishing rod
Modern design
Theoretically, the ideal rods should gradually taper from tip to edge, be tight in all joints (if any), and have a pointy, pointed taper, without 'dead spots'. Modern design and fabrication techniques, along with advanced materials such as graphite, boron and fiberglass composites as well as stainless steels (see Emmrod) - have enabled bar makers to customize the shape and action of the fishing line for greater casting distance, accuracy, and quality of fish throwing. Today, the fishing rod is identified by their weight (which means the weight of the line or bait required to flex the fully charged rod) and action (describes the speed with which the rod returns to its neutral position).
Generally there are three types of rods used today graphite, fiberglass, and bamboo stems. The bamboo stem is the heaviest of the three, but people still use it to taste it. The fiberglass rod is the heaviest of the newly created chemical rods. They are mostly popular with new and young anglers, as well as anglers who can not afford the generally more expensive graphite rods. They are more commonly found among anglers that fish in rough areas such as in rocks or wharves where crashing into sticks on hard objects is a greater possibility. This has the potential to cause damage, making fiberglass rods better for some anglers because of higher endurance and purchasing power compared to graphite rods. The most popular trunks today tend to be graphite because of their light weight characteristics and their ability to allow for further and more accurate casting. Graphite trunks tend to be more sensitive, allowing users to feel the bite of the fish more easily.
Modern fishing retains cork as a general ingredient for grip. Corks are light, durable, warm and tend to send vibrations to the stems better than synthetic materials, although EVA foam is also used. Reel seats are often made of graphite-reinforced plastic, aluminum, or wood. Guides are available in steel and titanium with a range of high-tech alloy metal inserts replacing the classical agate insertion from the previous stem.
The back or back can also be used with modern fishing poles to make it easier to attract large fish from the water. It is a support such as a fork that helps keep the rod in its position, exerting influence and counteracting the tension caused by the fish being caught.
Bench-making bench
The old rod making bench usually consists of a 6 to 8 foot bench, vice, drawing knife, jack, fore plane, large rough flat file, sand paper, and several 2-foot wooden pieces with different sizes of grooves inside.
Specifications
There are several specifications that manufacturers use to illustrate the use of stems. These include strength, action, line weight, weight of lure, and number of pieces.
Power
Also known as "strength value" or "bar weight". Rods can be classified as ultra-light, light, medium-light, medium, medium-heavy, heavy, ultra-heavy, or other similar combinations. Power is often an indicator of what fish type, fish type, or specific fish size is best used for poles. Ultra-light rods are suitable for catching small bait fish and also panfish, or situations where the stem response is very important. Ultra-Heavy rods are used for deep-sea fishing, deep-sea fishing, or for heavy fish. While manufacturers use a variety of designations for the strength of a stick, there is no fixed standard, hence the application of certain power tags by manufacturers is somewhat subjective. Any fish can theoretically be caught with any stick, of course, but catching panfish on heavy trunks offers no sport whatsoever, and successfully landing large fish on an ultralight rod requires the highest rod handling skills, and more often ends with a broken tackle and lost fish. Rods are best suited for the type of fish they are meant to be.
Action
"Action" refers to the speed at which the rod returns to its neutral position. Actions may be slow, medium, fast, or anything in between (eg Medium-fast). Contrary to how it is often presented, action does not refer to the buckling curve. Fast-action stems can easily have a progressive bending curve (from edge to edge) as the upper bending curve alone. Actions can be affected by the rod reductions, lengths and materials used to empty. Typically a rod that uses an empty glass fiber composite is slower than a rod that uses an empty carbon fiber composite.
However, the action is also often a subjective description of the manufacturer. Very often misused acts to record the bending curve instead of speed. Some manufacturers list the value of the strength of the stem as an action. The "medium" bamboo stem may have a faster action than a "fast" fiberglass bar. The action is also subjectively used by anglers, as anglers may compare the given rod as "faster" or "slower" than different stems.
The action and strength of a rod may change when the load is greater or less than the weight of the rod determined cast. When the load used exceeds the specified bar rod can break when foundry, if the line does not break first. When the load is much smaller than the recommended distance of the rod, casting distance is reduced significantly, because rod action can not launch the load. It acts like a stiff pole. In a flying rod, the weight rating exceeds may be curved empty or has difficulty casting when the rod is loaded incorrectly.
Fast-action sticks combined with full progressive curve curves allow fishermen to make longer cast, given that the pour weight and diameter of the line are correct. When cast weight exceeds the light specifications, the rods become slower, slightly reducing the distance. When the cast weight is slightly less than the specified casting weight the distance is slightly reduced as well, since the action of the stem is only used partially.
Curve bent and tapered
The main function of the fishing line is to bend and provide a certain resistance or strength: While casting, the rod acts as a catapult: by moving the rod forward, the inertia of the feed or feed mass and the rod itself, will bend (bend)) the rod and launch the feed or bait. When the bites are registered and the fisherman strikes, the bending of the stem will dampen the attack to avoid channel failure. When fighting with fish, the stem bending not only allows the fisherman to keep the line under pressure, but bending the stem will also keep the fish under constant pressure that will drain the fish and allow the fisherman to actually catch the fish. fish. Also bending reduces the leverage effect by shortening the lever spacing (rod). Rigid stems will require a lot of fishing power, while actually less power is applied to the fish. For comparison, deep bending rods will require less power than fishermen, but provide a greater combat power to the fish. In practice, the effect of leverage is often misleading fishermen. Often it is believed that hard and rigid stems put more control and power on the fish to fight, while it is actually a fish that puts power on the fisherman. In commercial fishing practices, large and strong fish are often only drawn in the lane itself without much effort, which may be due to the absence of leverage effects.
The shaft can curve in different curves. Traditionally the curve is mainly determined by its tapering. In simplified terms, a fast taper will bend more in the edge area and not much in the buttock, and a slow taper will tend to bend too much in the buttocks and give a weak stem. A progressive oval that loads smoothly from the top to the butt, adding more strength in the bent rod. In practice, wrinkle quality rods are often curved or in steps to achieve proper action and curve curve for this type of fishing rod is built. In today's practice, different fibers with different properties can be used in a single rod. In this practice, there is no direct relation between the actual oval and the flexural curve.
The bending curve is not easily described by the term. However, some sticks & amp; empty producers try to simplify things towards their customers by describing the bend curve by linking it to their actions. The term quick action is used for bars where only the edges are curved, and slow actions for bars that bend from end to end. In practice, this is misleading, because high-quality stems are often quick-action stems, bending from end to end. While a rod called 'fast-action' is a rigid stem (without action) that ends at the soft or slow end. Rapid action construction and progressive bending action are more difficult and more costly to achieve. The general term to describe the bending curve or the properties affecting the bending curve are: progressive/fast/progressive/fast-acting/fast, rapid taper, progressive curves (note progressive bending curves, tend to be fast-paced), tip actions (also called as an 'umbrella'-action), a broom-action (referring to the previously mentioned rigid' quick action 'with the soft tip). A parabolic action is often used to record progressive bending curves, in fact the term is derived from a series of fly splitcane rods built by Pezon & amp; Michel in France since the late 1930s, which has a progressive bending curve. Sometimes a more specific parabolic term is used to note the specific types of progressive curve curves such as those found in the Parabolic series.
The general way today to describe the bending nature of the rod is the Common Cents System, which is "an objective and relative measurement system for measuring the strength of stems, actions and even the elusive thing... the fisherman likes to call it".
The curve curve determines how the stem accumulates and releases its strength. This not only affects the foundry and the nature of the fish fights, but also the sensitivity to the attack while lure the bait, the ability to install the hook (which is also related to stem mass), the control over the feed or bait, the way the rods should be handled and how the power is distributed to the stem. In the full progressive rod, the power is distributed most evenly over the entire rod.
Weight path
A rod is usually also classified based on the optimal weight of the fishing rod or in the case of a flying rod, the flying line that must be handled by the rod. The weight of the fishing line is explained in pounds of gravity before the line section. The line weight for the bar is expressed as a range designed to support the bar. The weight of the flying rod is usually expressed as a number from 1 to 12, written as "N" wt (eg 6wt.) And each weight represents the standard weight in the grain for the first 30 feet of the flying line made by American Fishing Tackle Manufacturing. Association. For example, the first 30 'of the 6wt flying line should weigh between 152-168 grains, with the optimal weight being 160 grains. In casting and spinning rods, titles like "8-15 lb. line" are typical.
Weight lure
The trunk can also be explained by the weight of the feed or the hook designed to support the shaft. The weight of the lure is usually expressed in ounces or grams.
Number of pieces
The one-part rod from the butt to the end is considered to have the most natural "feel", and is preferred by many, although the difficulty of transporting it safely becomes an increasing problem with increasing stem length. Two rods, joining the ferrule, are very common, and if engineered properly (especially with glass tubes or carbon fiber rods), sacrifice very little in the natural way. Some fishermen do feel the difference in sensitivity with two-piece stems, but most do not.
Some rods join through metal bus. It adds mass to the rod that helps in the hook setting and helps activate the rod from end to buttock while casting, resulting in a better casting experience. Some anglers have this kind of installation superior to one part rod. They are found in special handmade rods. In addition to adding the correct masses, depending on the type of wheel, these fittings are also the most powerful fittings known, but also the most expensive. For that reason they are almost never found in commercial fishing rods.
Type
Fishing rods can be built from a large number of materials. Generally they are made with fiberglass, graphite, or a new generation composite, also known as carbon fiber. Many times carbon fibers and graphite are used together in the process of making rods.
Carbon fiber rod
Carbon fiber rods are not always better than glass fiber rods; two fibers have different properties, with their own sacrifice. Carbon fibers are less flexible (stiff) than glass fibers and are more fragile and prone to damage when abused, while carbon fibers allow for longer and faster stems. Carbon fibers also allow for smaller diameter rods that are more sensitive than glass fiber rods. The carbon fiber rods are also much lighter than glass fiber rods that allow for longer fishing. Each has a goal in the fishing industry and both increase the angler's chances of becoming successful when empty is used for the right purpose.
Flying bars
Flying bars, thin and flexible fishing rods designed to throw an artificial fly, usually consist of hooks tied with feathers, feathers, foams, or other lightweight materials. More modern flies are also tied up with synthetic materials. Originally made of yew, green hart, and then split bamboo (Tonkin cane), the most modern fly rod is built from man-made composite materials, including fiberglass, carbon/graphite, or graphite/boron composites. The split bamboo stems are generally considered the most beautiful, the most "classic", and also generally the most fragile of the styles, and they require a lot of care to survive well. Instead of lure weighted, the fly rod uses the weight of the flying line for casting, and the lightweight rod is able to throw the very smallest and lightest flies. Typically, a monofilament segment called a "leader" is bound to a fly line at one end and a fly on the other.
Each stem is sized for the fish sought, wind and water conditions as well as for specific line weights: larger and heavier line sizes will throw larger and larger flies. The flying rods come in a variety of line sizes, ranging from the size of # 000 to the # 0 stem for the smallest freshwater fish and panfish up to and including the # 16 sticks for the big saltwater fish. The flying rods tend to have a large diameter single-line guidance (called stripping guides), with a number of smaller circular guides (snake alias guides ) placed along the rod to help control relatively thick flying gestures. To prevent interference with the casting movement, most flying rods usually have little or no buttocks (grip) extending under the fishing reel. However, Spey rods, flying rods with elongated back rails, are often used for fishing both large rivers for salmon and Steelhead or saltwater surf casting, using two-handed casting techniques.
The flying rod, in modern manufacture, is almost always constructed from carbon graphite. Graphite fibers are placed in an increasingly sophisticated pattern to keep the stems uneven when emphasized (usually referred to as circular forces). The rod shrinks from one end to the other and the taper level determines how many stems are flexed when pressed. A larger number of sticks that flex 'slow' the stem. The slower rods are easier to cast, making the presentation lighter but creating a wider loop on the front cast that reduces casting distance and is subject to wind effects. Furthermore, the process of wrapping graphite fiber sheets to build a rod creates imperfections that produce rotating rods during casting. The twist rod is minimized by directing the guide rod along the side of the rod with the most 'give'. This is done by flexing the trunk and feeling for the point that most give or by using computerized stem testing.

Tenkara rods
The Tenkara Rod is a kind of fly fly used for fishing in Japan. Mixed rods in other categories, they are carbon rods, flying rods and telescopic bars all in one. It is an ultra-light and highly portable telescopic rod (read more about telescopic below). Its long lengths usually range from 11 to 13 feet, and they have a very gentle action. The action of the tenkara rod has been standardized as the ratio of "how much the more rigid parts: how much the more bending ends". The standard actions are 5: 5, 6: 4, 7: 3, and 8: 2, with 5: 5 being a softer/slower stem, and 8: 2 being a stiff rod. Similar to the western divine stem of the tenkara rod also has a cork, and sometimes even a wooden handle, with wooden handles (like red pines, and phoenix tree) becomes more valuable stems due to their increased sensitivity to fish bites and the heavier ones. feelings that help balance the stem. Tongkat Tenkara has no guide. Tenkara is a fixed-line fishing method, where no reel is used, but the line is directly connected to the end of the rod. As the above mentioned carbon rod allows for a "very precise positioning of the fly which in turn enables large catches of fish with an accurate feeding". One of the most common flies used in fishing with tenkara is Sakasa Kebari. Tenkara fishing is very popular in Japan, where this rod can be found in every major equipment store. In the US, tenkara is starting to grow in popularity.
IM/Modulus
IM6, IM7, etc. Is a trade name for certain graphite manufactured by Hexcel Corporation. These figures are not industry standards or quality indications, especially since other companies use titles to refer to graphite that is not made by Hexcel. At best, they allow you to compare the quality of materials used to build different stems by the same manufacturer: the IM7 stem will use better graphite than the IM6 rod if both are made by the same manufacturer. It's harder to say the same about the rods of two different companies, because they can be made from materials from completely different manufacturers.
Modulus refers to the stiffness of graphite, not the amount of material used or the amount of graphite fibers inserted into the sheet. Purchasing a rod based solely on the modulus rating is an error because other factors should be considered, for example, if the fisherman does not want the strongest stem for lightline or crank technique. In addition, other qualities should be included in the graphite itself and the rod should be properly designed to ensure the best performance and endurance of the rod. Other components that enter the quality rod can also add significantly to the cost.
Both in IM and modulus, higher ratings, carbon fibers are more rigid in the stem, along with this stiffness, the carbon also becomes more fragile and shows more wear over time.
Spin and casting rods feed
Spin casting rods are rods designed to withstand spin casting reels, which are usually mounted over the handle. Spin casting rods also have small eyes and, often, trigger grip toes. They are very similar to feeding baiting rods, to the point where the type of coil can be used on a particular rod. While the rods at one time are offered as specific "spin casting" or "bait casting" rods, these have become commonplace, as rod designs are suitable for good fishing styles, and today they are generally called only "casting rods", and are usually offered without distinction for which style is best suited to use. Casting rods are usually seen as stronger than the rod of spinning tools - they can use heavier lines and can handle heavier covers.
Rotating Rod
The rotating rod is made of graphite or fiberglass with a cork or PVC foam handle, and tends to be between 5 and 8.5 ft (1.5-2.6 m) long. Typically, a rotating rod has about 5-8 guides arranged along the bottom of the rod to help control the line. The eye decreases in size from the handle to the end, with the nearest grip usually much larger than the other to allow less friction because the line rolls out of the roll, and to collect very large coils of lines coming from the spin spool. Unlike bait casting and spin casting reels, the spinning reel hangs beneath the rod rather than sitting on top, and is held in place with a sliding reel chair or lock. The second and third fingers of the fisherman straddle the "legs" of the scroll where it is attached to the support chair on the rod, and the weight of the scroll hangs underneath the stick, which makes it a more comfortable way to fish for a long time. It also allows the rod to be held in the dominant hand of the fisherman (the handle on the most modern reversible spinning coil) which greatly improves the control and nuance applied to the rod itself. Spinning rods and reels are widely used for popular sport fishing in North America including bass, trout, pike and walleye. Popular targets for spinning in the UK and continental Europe are spears, perch, eels and zander (walleye). Longer spinning rods with elongated handles for two-handed casting are often used for saltwater or steelheads and salmon fishing. Rotating rods are also widely used for trolling and still fishing with live bait.
Ultra-light stem
These rods are used for fish for smaller species, they provide more exercise with larger fish, or to allow bass fishing with brighter lines and smaller baits. Although this term is commonly used to refer to a rod or tackle spinning or spin-cast, the fly rod in smaller line weights (size # 0- # 3) has also long been used for ultra-light fishing, as well as to protect -diameter, parts the lightest tip of the leader, or the tippet, is used in this type of fishing.
Spinning and casting ultra-light rods are generally shorter (4 to 5.5 feet (1.2 to 1.7 m) are common) lighter, and more flexible than normal rods. The action tip varies from slow to fast, depending on the intended use. This rod usually carries 1 to 6 pounds (4.5-27 N) of the fishing line test. Some ultra-light rods are capable of producing bait weighing 1/64 per ounce (0.4 g) - usually small spinners, wet flies, crappie jigs, tubes, or baits like trout worms. Originally produced to bring more excitement to the sport, ultra-light spin fishing is now widely used for crappie, trout, bass, bluegill, Roach, Perch, Bream, Pumpkin seeds, Tench and other pan fish species.
Ice bar
Modern ice bars are usually very short spinning rods, varying between 24 and 36 inches (61 and 91 cm) in length. The classic ice bar - still widely used - is a rigid piece of wood like a wooden stick, usually with a carved wooden handle, a pair of line guides, and two opposite hooks mounted in front of the handle to twist the line around it. Ice rods are used for fishing through holes in the ice cover of the lake and frozen ponds.
Sea trunk
Sea rods are designed for use with fish from the sea. They are long, (about 4 meters on average), very thick, and feature large, heavy tips, eyes, and handles. The largest marine trunk is for use with sport fishing boats. Some of them are special stems, including sharks, and marlin rods, and for use with very heavy equipment.
Surfboard
The most common type of sea rod is for surf casting. Surf casting rods resemble oversized spinning or bait casting rods with long handle grips intended for two-handed casting techniques. Generally between 10 and 14 feet (3-4 m) in length, the surf casting rod should be longer so that the user throws the bait or bait out of the crashing waves where the fish tend to congregate, and sturdy enough to remove the weighted weighted bait. or bait required to hold the bottom of rough water. They are almost always used in beach fishing (sea-fishing from the coastline) from beaches, rocks or other beach features. Some surfcasters use strong rods to produce up to six ounces or more of lead weight, artificial feed, and/or baits over a hundred meters.
Trolling Rod
Trolling is a fishing method of feeding bait or bait to the side, or behind, the boat is moving, and letting the boat movement pull the bait through the water. In theory, for light and medium water fish games, any casting or spinning rod (with the possible exception of the ultralight rod) can be used for trolling. In the last 30 years, most manufacturers have developed a full line of generally long and heavy trunks sold as "Trolling Rods", and are aimed primarily at ocean anglers and Great Lakes salons and steelhead fishermen. An effective rod for trolling should have relatively quick action, because a very whippy slow-motion bar is very frustrating for trolls, and fast (fairly stiff) rods are generally easier to work when fishing with this method. Perhaps the extreme in this philosophy was achieved during the 1940s and early 1950s, when the now-defunct True Temper company - the maker of garden tools - markets a line of 4.5 to 5 square troll bars made of square, square steel. cross. They act as excellent troll bars, although the action is too rigid for sport like a fish once captivated. As Great Lakes sportfishing in particular becomes more popular with each year, all manufacturer manufacturers continue to expand their lines from specialized "trolling" rods, although as noted, for most inland lakes and stream fishing, good casting or rotating rods are adequate. for trolling.
Telescopic Rod
Telescopic fishing rods are designed to collapse into short and open lengths for long stems. 20 or even 30 feet of stem can be nearly as high as half a foot. This makes the rod very easily transportable to remote areas or traveling by bus, compact car, or public bus and subway. Telescopic fishing rods are made of the same material as conventional multi-cut rods. Graphite, carbon, and sometimes fiberglass, or composites of these materials, are designed to slip into each other so they open and close. Eyes on a rotating rod are generally, but not always, a special design to help make the end of each part stronger. Various eye classes available in conventional trunks are also available in telescopic fishing rods. The Eyeglass-style rod is also of this type and is usually made of carbon and/or graphite.
Treatment for telescopic fishing rods is much the same as other stems. The only difference is that one should not open the telescopic bar in a way that whips the closed rod to the open position quickly. Whipping or throwing telescopic fishing rods is open as possible and will likely cause it to be difficult to close. When closing the rod make a slight twisting motion while pushing the part together. Often the rod comes with a tip cover to protect the tip and guide. In addition, extra care should be taken to avoid getting dirt or sand in the joints; because of their design this can easily damage the style of this rod.
Telescopic rods are very popular among surfing fishermen. Bringing 12 or 14 foot waves, even in two parts, is impractical. The shorter the shorter they close, the more eyes they have, and the better the power curve in them. More eyes mean better weight and voltage distribution across the parabolic arc. This translates into further casting, stronger fighting skills, and less stem termination.
