When fishing, the choice of fishing rod will enter some misunderstandings. What are the four misunderstandings in choosing fishing rods?

Myth 1: I think a good fishing rod must be hard. Fishing friends may find that whether online or offline, stores should add a keyword "hard" when selling fishing rods, which makes people feel that soft rods seem to have been eliminated by history, and hard rods are the only standard for good fishing rods. This is obviously misleading in advertising, and it is wrong to emphasize the application of hard pole blindly. If you meet a big fish, the hard rod not only has no advantage, but also may be broken because it is not gentle enough. In fact, soft pole and hard pole have their own foothold: soft pole is more suitable for big fish, which can solve the impact of fish scientifically and standardize and better protect the line; However, the hard rod has good elasticity and can catch fish quickly, which is more suitable for the comprehensive fish situation that must be caught frequently. Objectively speaking, hard bars are indeed more popular. I think this may be related to the way people behave now. Now everyone pays attention to high efficiency, and fishing naturally likes to use a pole that returns fish quickly, which is convenient to solve the battle quickly.

Myth 2: I think a good fishing rod head must first introduce some common sense: generally speaking, the center of gravity of the fishing rod is equal to or less than a quarter of the length of the whole rod, the center of gravity is behind, the head is light, and the feel is good when the rod is empty; On the contrary, the center of gravity is in the front, the head is heavy, and the handle is not good when the rod is empty. When a fisherman buys a fishing rod, the store may tell you, "My fishing rod has a low center of gravity, a heavy head and a good feel." That's true. A fishing rod with a lower center of gravity feels better when it is empty. However, considering the advantages and disadvantages of a fishing rod, we should not only consider the feel of the fishing rod when it is empty, but also consider the effect of the fish after it. The fishing rod with light head will be very comfortable to catch small fish, but if it is used for catching big fish and walking fish, it may not be as harmonious as the fishing rod with heavy head, because the fishing rod with heavy head is more suitable for walking big fish.

Myth 3: The lighter the fishing rod, the better. From the perspective of feel and vision, fishing friends may all like lighter fishing rods. However, in the case of the same fishing rod material, the lighter and thinner the rod body, the more its elasticity and waist strength will be compromised, and it may become a so-called "face rod", which is very unfavorable for fishing. Therefore, when choosing a fishing rod, we should give full consideration to it, and we should not think that it is light and thin. If you take a fancy to a thin fishing rod, you should find out what makes it thin. If it is made of advanced materials, it is acceptable. It is not advisable to thin the fishing rod at the expense of its characteristics.

Myth 4: The bigger the T number of the fishing rod carbon fiber cloth, the better. T number refers to the number of carbon filaments in carbon fiber cloth per square meter. The greater the T number, the higher the carbon content and the lighter the fishing rod. But the higher the carbon content of fishing rod, the more brittle it is and the easier it is to break. Generally speaking, fishermen with skilled skills and technology can control high carbon steel rods. For fishermen with average fishing level, expensive high carbon steel rods are not the best choice. If your skills and skills are average, it is recommended to choose a medium fishing rod with low carbon content. Although the net weight is a little high, it is durable and cost-effective.
