Fishing Rods – Complete Guide
In the master category Fishing Rods you will find a complete range for every fishing technique: from light spinning and LRF rods to demanding shore jigging, slow jigging, surf & heavy casting and specialized tai-rubber & inchiku rods. Each subcategory is designed to help you choose the right length, casting weight and action for your fishing style.
At a Glance
- Spinning: versatile, accurate casting, fast action.
- Shore Jigging: power, heavy jigs, long-distance casting.
- Surf & Heavy Casting: salt resistance and huge distance.
- Tai-Rubber & Inchiku: progressive curve, smooth power.
How to Choose the Right Rod
- Length: Shore 2.10–3.00 m depending on space and distance; shorter for boat control.
- Casting Weight (c.w.): must match lure or jig weight. Wrong c.w. = poor casting and fatigue.
- Action: fast for lures with lively movement, moderate for balanced casting, slow for progressive loading.
- Blank Material: carbon for sensitivity & lightness, composites for toughness.
- Guides/Reel Seat: anti-corrosion components designed for saltwater use.
- Balance: rod and reel must match to reduce fatigue.
Best Setups
For spinning, pair your rod with a reel size 2500–3000 and a thin braid (PE 0.6–1.0). For shore jigging, choose a 4000–6000 reel and PE 1.5–2.0 braid. For surfcasting, prefer a long cast spool and rods 4–4.5 m with the appropriate casting weight.
