? How are the types of fishing rods divided

Traditionally, bamboo rods are generally used, and the tools are relatively simple, now, not only according to the use of classification, but also the material, then, how to divide it?

A: according to the use of classification

We now use the fishing rod is generally divided into two categories: hand rod and casting rod. Hand rods are divided into stream rods and table fishing rods, casting rods are divided into sea rods, iso rods and road rods. The difference between hand rods and casting rods is that hand rods do not come with a fishing reel, while casting rods come with a fishing reel.

1, Taiwan fishing rod

Taiwan fishing rod: dedicated to Taiwan fishing method, long section, more. Lightweight, diameter fine can be called table fishing rod.

The rods are generally categorized into: parallel rods, also known as insertion rods, vibration rods, also known as withdrawal rods, vibration rods, the most common and commonly used.

When choosing a rod, first look at the rod's appearance, paint finish, is not spotty, rod tip and flexible line joint bonding is not good, each section of the rod and the last section of the joint is not uniform. Check the ends of each section of the rod for cracks and whether the tube walls are even. If necessary, check the length of the built-in joints of each section of the rod (vibration type), 20-40mm. when choosing a rod in a tackle store, first of all, read the description. There are instructions on the outer box and on the rod handle.

(1) contraction length: generally divided into rod contraction length (table rod contraction length of 1 meter to 1.1 meters);

(2) the number of sections (this), such as four for the four sections of the general 3.6 meters long, also known as the 12-foot, five sections (this) for the 4.5-meter-long, known as the 15-foot, six sections (this) for the 5.4-meter-long, known as the feet of the 18-foot, the most commonly used on the general only the three lengths, 3.6 meters and 4.5 meters most commonly used, the 3.6 meters and 4.5 meters. The most commonly used lengths are 3.6 meters and 4.5 meters;

(3) first, Yuan diameter, the first diameter refers to the size of the rod tip thickness, Yuan diameter refers to the size of the handle thickness. The first diameter is generally 1mm or less, the diameter of the yuan (the thickest part) and the size of the handle production, in short, the selection of the rod in order to ensure that the premise of strong and solid to be as thin as possible under the overall;

(4) Carbon content: 98% or more can be;

(5) weight: 3.6 meters of the weight of the rod is appropriate to choose the weight of the rod in the 85 grams or less, choose the weight of the rod of the 4.5 meters of the weight of the rod of the appropriate to choose the weight of the 120 grams, choose the weight of the rod of 5.4 meters of the weight of 180 grams, the weight of the rod of the 5.4 meters of the appropriate to choose the weight of the rod of the 5.4 meters. The weight of the 5.4 meter rod is 180 grams or less.

Tuning: usually Taiwan fishing rods are divided into soft rods, medium-hard fishing rods, hard fishing rods, super-hard fishing rods four, commonly known as five, four six, three seven, two eight rods, Taiwan fishing in the most commonly used is super-hard fishing (two eight rods). How to choose it? We pull out the new rod, a person to take the tip of the rod, another person to take the rod handle, and then a little force to lift the rod, see the rod main bend point location, if the folding point to the tip of the length of the rod is the rod of the full length of two-tenths of the rod, then, the rod is super-hard fishing, that is, two-eight rods, so analogous. Because now the domestic rod and imported rods from the quality difference is not large, and now on the market rod is basically a joint venture rod, so, no matter where the fishing, it is recommended to buy super-hard fishing rod. Because of the super-hard rods, the speed of the rod reflection is obviously faster, the fish rate is high, the fish is convenient, not because the rod is soft and difficult to bring to shore, the number of sections is small, light.

Centripetal force: Comparison among sample-heavy rods. When a new rod is drawn out, hold the rod handle in your hand and lift the rod with a strong upward movement. When the rod from the flat to lift more than 60 degrees angle, feel the rod feel the weight of the rod is in the middle of the rod, or to the palm of the hand to retrieve the weight to the palm of the rod is a good rod, and vice versa, you will feel the rod is getting heavier and heavier.

Hardness: When shaking the rod up and down at a constant speed, the tip of the rod should not be too soft above 40% of the tip. A bad rod tip will bounce up and down or snake-like without regularity. A good rod just bounces in the direction of the shake.

Uniformity of force: Imitate the action of lifting the rod under the force of starting a fish, one person holds the tip of the rod, and one person lifts the rod with force to see whether the rod bending arc is uniform, such as the tip of the rod to the end of the rod, there is a clear folding point, then the rod has a problem, it is easy to break.

Price: A must-have condition for buying a rod, as we all know. It is important to focus on the cost-effectiveness of choosing a rod. If you want to buy a light, strong, thin, low-priced rod, there may not be so many good things in the world. Good quality, good workmanship of the rod is generally expensive, usually listen to more, choose to see more, try to use the relatively minimum amount of money to buy the rod you think the most satisfactory. This depends on how well you know the rods, and how well you choose them.

2, stream rod

stream rod: general length 50-80CM, 50-70 called short section rod, 70-80 said the middle and long section rod. Stream rods are designed for stream fishing, and the short section is easy to carry when put away, mainly used for fishing small fish in the stream.

Advantages and disadvantages of stream rods:

Short section, easy to carry; Taiwan fishing rod section is long and inconvenient to carry;

Stream rods have more sections, soft tuning, hardness is not high, the price is cheap, only suitable for fishing for small fish species, often like to break the rod when encountered with big fish, especially the use of thicker line sets on the fish and fish the first round of the more forceful when the rod is especially like to break.

3, iso rod

iso rod, also known as the hand-sea dual-purpose rods, the original is mainly used for the sea iso fishing, and now has become a necessary weapon for freshwater fishing for big fish, iso rod tuning boundary between the hand rod and the sea rod, softer than the sea rod, is not suitable for long-distance casting, generally small and medium-sized fishing wheels, the length of the general in the 3.6 meters - 7.2 meters. 7.2 meters.

Characteristics of the iso rod:

(1) iso rods are generally equipped with three to four guide rings in one section, two sections of the second section is equipped with two to three guide rings, three sections of the third section is equipped with one to two guide rings;

(2) iso rods are used for iso fishing (if used for freshwater fishing, it is a big talent is too small);

(3) iso rods are more expensive, mainly because of the material and the price of different, such as imported rod 5000 - 12000 iso rods, the material is very good, light! High strength 6.3 meters more than 2 hundred grams of weight, fishing on the 20KG sea fish no problem, the surface of the paint water is too good, do not stain the water, do not stain the line! (Sea fishing) These points in the night iso fishing is very key! With a set down 15 to 20 thousand, but the equipment is too expensive, the average person can not accept. (For fishing reservoir waste) mid-range Korean and domestic mid-range and high-end products are also good, the price bottom a lot of 500 - 1000 or so is also very good. Middle bottom price Kirigami rod 100 - 200 or so is mainly heavy and fishing weight strength bottom! There are also a few models such as silver fox iso short iso rod (closing length of 90 centimeters) 120 if you are not picky, but also can be used. It's still worth every penny! However, I don't think there is much difference in the use of Phantom Iso, Silver Fox Iso is still fishing for sea fish! (change the set and line) Also fishing reservoirs, there is no strict distinction between the two.

(4) There are many different types of rods, not only in terms of length, but also in terms of hardness, softness, number and carbon content;

(5) There are many different types of rods that can be used for long distance casting and attacking large fish, as well as for quick attacking large and small fish and for close range attacking small and medium sized fish.

4, sea rod

Sea rod (telescopic fishing rod), also known as casting rod or casting rod. It is installed in the shank of the fishing rod has a winding wheel, the top wrapped with fishing line, so that, when the force casting, can throw the bait hook to the farther waters. This kind of fishing rod with a winding wheel in our country in the Tang Dynasty, the ancients you for the "fishing car", "wheel fishing" and so on, and the market this kind of sea rod is imported from abroad, because it has a lot of advantages, it is quickly popularized in the country, and become a lot of anglers must have fishing tackle!

These rods were introduced from abroad.

Second, the types of rods: according to the material classification

1, fiberglass fishing rod is also known as fiberglass rod, fiberglass resin rod. It is the use of fiberglass satin cloth, bath dipped in epoxy resin, aldehyde resin, high temperature curing molding (hollow tube or solid rod body), with good toughness and elasticity, is the fishing rod production towards modern synthetic materials, factory production of the first generation of products. Fiberglass fishing rods have good insulation. Fishing rods are not coated after shaping the cavity before the rod body color yellow, brown. At present, the domestic and some countries and regions in the production of fishing rods, some in the bath dip resin solution to add carbon black powder, on the one hand, with the carbon fiber cloth (black) mixing and shaping, to get the color and luster; on the other hand, some producers to dye the black fiberglass cloth pretending to be carbon fiber or carbon fishing rods.

2, carbon fiber rods, also known as carbon rods, is the use of high-tech carbon fiber material manufactured. With conductivity (Ωcm - 1.5 × 10-3) and very good tensile strength (such as 12,000 filaments number of units, its tensile strength of kg/mm2 - 400). At present the vast majority of carbon fiber fishing rod is used in the longitudinal spinning of carbon fiber longitudinal cloth tube, by immersion resin curing and manufacturing. Used in the production of fishing rods carbon fiber content, how much, directly determines the value and grade of the fishing rod. General carbon content is, 90% or so. Fishing rods made of carbon fiber has a light, solid, high tensile strength characteristics, but should pay special attention to the use of anti-electricity.

At present, the domestic fishing tackle market carbon fiber is divided into full carbon and semi-carbon two kinds, due to the high price of carbon fiber, so the production of full carbon fishing rods try to make the diameter of the rod is very thin, in order to reduce the amount of carbon fiber cloth, so the full carbon rods are thinner in diameter and lighter in weight, the outer diameter of a 7-section 7-meter-long full-carbon rods are only equivalent to the outer diameter of the glass fiber rods 5 sections of 5 meters, it is very good to recognize from the outside. Pocket rods have a longer contraction length than fiberglass rods, generally around 70cm, and a very fine diameter.

Semi-carbon rod and there are two kinds of points: one is attached to the carbon fiber cloth in the fiberglass cloth outside the roll in the mold core, the rod is done inside the fiberglass cloth outside the carbon fiber cloth open the back cover can clearly see the inner wall of the tube wall has a mesh pattern, rough texture, and the color of the dark black, the outside of the tube wall has no pattern, fine texture, color silver gray, such a rod is usually thicker pole body, the same as the ordinary fiberglass rod, the contraction of the length of pocket rod and ordinary fiberglass rod, the contraction length of 58 centimeters or so. 58 centimeters or so.

Another is the most easy to break the first few sections made of full carbon cloth, after a few sections with fiberglass cloth, this rod that has the advantages of carbon fiber rods, but also reduces the cost of production and selling price, favored by the majority of anglers.

There are two ways to distinguish between carbon and fiberglass rods:

One is to look. Open the back cover of the rod body, if it is a carbon fiber rod can be seen on the rod body without pulling the paint part of the silver gray, and the same color as the carbon brush on the motor, the texture of the texture is fine and dense without weft line. With carbon black powder dyed fiberglass cloth is darker, there are obvious weft lines, rod body rough.

Second, the measurement. The multimeter will be dialed to the K file that is the resistance file, the two test rods at the same time on the body of the rod without pulling the paint, if it is a carbon fiber rod, the needle to the right swing, and vice versa is not moving.

Due to the carbon fiber rod has a good conductivity, thunderstorms and low-altitude wires can never be used, fishing line rolled in the wire can not be used to pick the rod. There have been several reports of injuries and deaths caused by improper use of carbon fiber rods, so please pay attention to your fishing friends.

The types of fishing rods vary according to different classifications, and the most common ones on the market today are the ones mentioned above. For more on fishing rods, please pay attention to the Outdoor Channel.
