Classification of fishing rods of fishing rods

Fishing rods are divided into three series according to the material: bamboo and wood, fiberglass (fiberglass material) fishing rods, and carbon fishing rods. Among them, carbon fishing rods are divided into low-carbon fishing rods, high-carbon fishing rods and ultra-high-carbon fishing rods according to the different carbon content. Meanwhile, a British company has introduced high-carbon fishing rods with the addition of nano-boron fibers, and the industry is accustomed to merge the latter into a separate category.

Bamboo and wood rods: Generally bamboo and wood rods have the advantages of fine materials, craftsmanship, low prices, easy to use, the vast majority of the old anglers like to use this rod. Generally made of bamboo, bamboo fishing rod varieties of specifications, for the production of plug-type fishing rod of bamboo also has nearly a hundred kinds. The selection of bamboo made of fishing rod, the growth period of at least two years old bamboo. Bamboo should be straight and round, uniform thickness, bamboo wall is thicker, no sinks, with elasticity. China has more than 250 kinds of bamboo, bamboo body slender and elasticity of the light bamboo, multi-section of the purple bamboo and spot service, slender round straight wall thick Ruo bamboo and four seasons of bamboo are good materials for making fishing rods. The production of the same set of fishing rod bamboo color must be consistent, several bamboo arrangement, the best bamboo section of the same Qi, arranged from top to bottom, thick and thin spacing is equal, smoked fire moderate, can not be aging, the socket wrapped tightly, painted uniformly and should be longer than the depth of insertion of the person to prevent angling when the force of the break, the upper and lower sections with the complete, tight no gap, the socket can not be too thin, no cracks, the whole rod installed, the whole should be straight, the force of bending into an arc shape, not the force of bending into a The whole rod is installed, the whole should be straight, when the force is bent into a round arc, when not under force should be restored to its original shape, light and heavy moderately, the root of the rod should appear to have elasticity and toughness when shaking the hand, and the external color is harmonious and coordinated. This kind of rod is worthy of the originator of modern brand rods.

Fiberglass fishing rod: 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 and forming (hollow tube or solid body), with good toughness and elasticity, is the production of fishing rods to modern synthetic materials, factory production of the first generation of products. Fiberglass fishing rods have good insulation. Fishing rods are formed without painting 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 same color; on the other hand, there are some manufacturers to dye the black fiberglass cloth pretending to be carbon fiber or carbon fishing rods. Fiberglass fishing rods are characterized by high strength, but also high weight, long time use, or use in high-intensity tournaments, it will be very strenuous. This also spawned a material revolution in the fishing rod industry, a new material commonly used in other fields - carbon fiber in the production of fishing rods have been applied.

Carbon fiber fishing rods: also known as carbon rods, are made of high-tech carbon dimensional material. 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). The vast majority of carbon fiber fishing rods are made of non-woven carbon fiber longitudinal cloth tube, cured by resin immersion and manufacturing. Used in the production of fishing rods in terms of carbon fiber content, how much, directly determine the value of the rod and taste. General carbon content of 30%, 90% or so. Fishing rods made of carbon fiber with light, solid, high tensile strength, but in use should pay special attention to anti-electricity. As carbon fiber rod has good electrical conductivity, thunderstorms and low-altitude naked wires can never be used, fishing line rolled on the wire can not be picked with the rod. There have been several reports of deaths and injuries caused by improper use of carbon fiber rods, so please pay attention to your fishing friends.

Nanometer boron fiber fishing rod: In 2009, the domestic market and the emergence of a "nanometer boron fiber" material fishing rod, the so-called nanometer boron fiber fishing rod, the main material is still carbon fiber material, but in the material to add 10-20% of the nanometer boron fiber. Boron Nanofiber (Boron Nanofiber) precursor is a new material called Boron Fiber (Boron Fiber), which has the characteristics of high strength, high elasticity and high temperature resistance. Boron fiber performance than commonly used glass fibers and carbon fibers are better, under the same circumstances, its strength is equivalent to 6-7 times the steel wire, its elasticity touch is 2-3 times that of steel, while the density is only 1/4 of steel, mainly used in aerospace and military industries and other sectors. Nanoboron fiber is a reinforcing agent that is processed by nanotechnology on the basis of boron fiber to make its material lighter and stronger. Its quality is only 1/3 of carbon fiber, but the strength is three times of carbon fiber. This advanced new material after the high-pressure rolling technology composite fusion on the carbon fiber, greatly reducing the weight of the fishing rod, making the rod lighter, while improving the strength and flexibility of the rod. Among international fishing tackle manufacturers, the patented production technology of nano-boron fiber fishing rods is exclusively held by a company called UK Fishing Tackle Intel International Co.

Titanium Fishing Rods: Also known as titanium fishing rods, they are made from titanium alloy tubes, a high-tech aerospace material. Its characteristics are: made of titanium and titanium alloy fishing rod front and rear end of the 35mm length with 1. 5 degrees taper contraction of the contraction section and expansion section, fishing rod sections are used between the local taper connection, the rear end of the installation of plastic handle, the handle of the end of the mouth with threaded connection cover. Both the function of fishing rod, but also has a corrosion-resistant, not aging, high strength, good elasticity, light weight, reasonable structure and other characteristics. In terms of design, the use of special physical and chemical processes, made of various patterns, the formation of titanium fishing rods unique charm along with your own cultural heritage, practical, aesthetic and artistic value in one. Fishing rods are categorized according to their use: they are divided into two major types: sea rods (also called dump rods and casting rods) and hand rods.

Sea rod in our country will be equipped with a fishing rod winding wheel, over the line guide eye, can be put line, line fishing rod collectively referred to as sea rod. Some areas are also known as casting rod, casting rod. Sea rod fishing rod by bamboo, plastic, fiberglass, containing some synthetic carbon fiber or all synthetic carbon fiber and other materials. Sea rods have the function of extending the fishing point by casting the line far away and releasing and reeling in the line freely according to the amount of winding. According to this function, sea rods are divided into boat fishing rods, rocky rods, beach fishing rods, snapper fishing rods, trout fishing rods and other categories. Its length is generally 1.6 meters, 1.8 meters, 2.1 meters, 2.4 meters, 2.7 meters, 3.0 meters, 3.3 meters, 3.6 meters, 3.9 meters, 4.2 meters, 4.5 meters, 4.8 meters, 5.4 meters, 6.3 meters, 7.2 meters.

Hand rods: divided into seven subcategories - stream rods, crucian carp rods, carp rods, integrated rods, fighting rods, hand rods, hand-sea rods;

Stream rods: a kind of fishing rods specially used in the mountain streams, shallows, and other waters, mainly used for fishing for horse mouthed fish, long-nosed fish, short-bearded jaw fish, oil fish, and other small and medium-sized fish. Small and medium-sized fish. Stream rods are characterized by a contracted length of 58 cm or 37 cm, which is easy to carry; the tip of the front section of the rod is solid, thin and with good toughness. The length of the rod is generally 2.7 meters, 3.6 meters, 4.5 meters, 5.4 meters. China's fishing enthusiasts are very fond of using stream rods, and extend it to pond fishing use. In order to adapt to the far fishing spot fishing, also have 6.3 meters, 7.2 meters stream rod supply.

Carp rods: The rods are lighter in weight and suitable for dealing with small fish such as crucian carp. It is characterized by a thin rod diameter, most of the rod handle wrapped with silk or acrylic thread, was spun outward hammer type, holding the rod handle has a good feel.

Carp rods: relative to carp rods, the main feature is that the rod body is thicker, stronger, suitable for dealing with carp and other large-sized fish. Characterized by the rod rod diameter is thicker, most of the rod handle wrapped with silk thread, acrylic thread and insulating heat-shrinkable tube, was spun outward to the hammer type, holding the rod handle when the feel is different. Comprehensive rods: A kind of rods with both size and moderate hardness in the middle of crucian carp rods and carp rods. It is suitable for beginners, wild fishing enthusiasts and competitive anglers who fish mixed pools.

Combat rods: mainly used in fishing fast fish competition. It has the function of convenient fly fishing, fast and strong fish control. The hardness of the fighting rod is labeled by H, from 2H to 8H, such as so-and-so 3H fighting rod, the number 3 represents the level of hardness, the larger the number the higher the hardness; H is the abbreviation of the English word Hardness, meaning hardness. Combat rods are thick-walled, sturdy, and self-weighted, and are less suitable for recreational fishing.

Hand rods: the length of the whole rod after the contraction of the length of about 1 meter, in order to reduce the number of sections of the rod section, so that the overall rod to maintain a very good tough curvature; the front section of the rod tip, thin and has good toughness. The length of hand rod is generally 2.1 meters, 2.4 meters, 2.7 meters, 3.0 meters, 3.3 meters, 3.6 meters, 3.9 meters, 4.2 meters, 4.5 meters, 4.8 meters, 5.4 meters, 6.3 meters. Common rod lengths are 3.6 meters, 4.5 meters, 5.4 meters; non-standard ones are 2.1 meters, 2.4 meters, 2.7 meters, 3.0 meters, 3.3 meters, 3.9 meters, 4.2 meters, 4.8 meters.

Island rod: also called dual-purpose hand-sea rod, refers to the fishing rod with the function of both hand rod and sea rod. The rod is equipped with a reel and line guide. When used as a hand rod, the line can be released through the reel and the rod length or 30 to 50 centimeters longer, or less than the rod length of 30 to 50 centimeters of line, according to the operation of the hand rod to use. The difference is that when the angler catches a big fish, the dual-purpose rod can release and retrieve the line, and it is not easy to break the rod and line due to the strong struggle of the fish. If used as a sea rod, it can be cast far to extend the fishing spot. The length of the rod is 4.5 meters, 4.8 meters, 5.4 meters, 6.3 meters, 7.2 meters. The name of dual-purpose rod is the customary name of fishing enthusiasts in our country, and in Japan, it is called "Isogee rod". It is different from other rods in that it has small line guides to prevent the line from hanging up when it is used as a hand rod, and the rod body is thin, especially the front tip section of the rod is thin. According to the use of the rod is divided into plug type fishing rod, pull type fishing rod, handle change fishing rod, center pass fishing rod.　

Plug-in rods are also called parallel rods. It is a rod that is made up of several sections of the rod body that are connected to each other to form a whole rod. Divided into solid plug rod and hollow plug rod two kinds. Hollow splicing rod body can be installed into the bottom section and the bottom two sections of the rod body. In Europe and the United States popular use of plug type fishing rod. Advanced carp fishing rods are also mostly combined with the plug-in method. It is characterized by a tight interface and good overall performance after the rod is stressed.

Pull rods are also known as "antenna" rods and vibration rods. Pulling rod for the hollow rod, can be several sections of the rod shrinkage hidden in the bottom handle of the rod tube. Characterized by easy to carry, but often less solid than the plug-in rod.

Switching rods are also known as interchangeable bottom handle rods. This rod is attached to more than two can be socketed bottom handle, mainly used in river fishing, pond fishing, reservoir fishing rods, such as a 5.4-meter full-length rod for six sections, when fishing to choose a 4.5-meter full-length rod, you can vibrate out of the type (plug type) 5.4-meter rod on the removal of the bottom section of the rod tube, become a full-length 4.5-meter rod, and then from the front end of the rod into the coat into the bottom of the handle of the other spare, that is, into a 4.5-meter full-length rod. From the front end of the rod into another spare bottom handle, it becomes a 4.5-meter rod, from which a 7.2-meter rod becomes a 6.3-meter rod, a 6.3-meter rod becomes a 5.4-meter rod, a 5.4-meter rod becomes a 4.5-meter rod, a 4.5-meter rod becomes a 3.6-meter rod, and a 3.6-meter rod becomes a 2.7-meter rod. In this way, changing the rod can play a role of two rods.

The center pass fishing rod is a fishing rod that the fishing line passes inside the rod body, so it is also known as the internal walking line fishing rod. The rod is equipped with a winding reel, and the line comes out of the tip of the rod through a hole in the rod body in front of the reel seat and into the hollow rod body. The advantages of the center pass fishing rod are: (1) not equipped with a line guide eye, the use of the rod will not produce line from the entire rod body through, when it is stressed to maintain the overall stress of the rod. This type of fishing rod is divided into two combination forms: one is a vibration out pulling rod; the other is a parallel relay plugging rod. As of 2014, this kind of fishing rod is very popular among foreign fishing enthusiasts, and is mainly used for boat fishing rods and isobaric object rods for isobaric fishing (called dual-purpose rods in China).
