Contemporary fishing rods do not resemble the primitive cane poles and which can
easily retrieve the fish caught in its bait with the aid of the reels in its
rod.
Some of the fishing rods sport sophisticated movable shafts that can move except
handle and can make it easier to catch a struggling fish caught on snare bait.
The basic design of a fishing rod has remained unchanged. It is thick at the
handle (bottom) and tapered and thinner at the tip to make it flexible and
provide it handling stability.
Fishing rods are normally 6 and 16 feet (2 and 5m) and have variable capacity to
tolerate fishing activity strains. Length of the pole determines the
withstanding power of a rod and also decides upon the angling rod's performance.
One of the smallest and less sophisticated fishing gadgets are the Cane poles,
which has a basic fly line attached to it and are either made of bamboo or other
flexible materials. A cane pole lacks a reel used for applying or for retrieving
a baited fish.
Spinning rods are normally used for fishes like trout, walleye and bass fish but
are also good for catching any heavyweight or lightweight fish. Measuring 5 and
7 (1.5 and 2.5m) they are the most popular rods presently. Being very flexible
and stress resistant they are used in bass fish competition. To prevent line
tangles during unfolding of fold lines they accommodate bigger and tougher fly
lines.
For heavy catches around 180 to 200 feet under the ocean's surface the jigging
rods are the best. Being made of fine, solid material they are heavy and can
catch fish even in alternating currents. Often erratic undersea current disturb
the fly line and consequently the lure. So to avoid confusion the fly lines of
jigging rods are made long and heavy. Such rods are best suited for halibuts and
cods that normally dwell at the bottom of the sea.
