What's the difference between a long-section fishing rod and a short-section fishing rod?

The difference between fishing rods is what is in the small yellow croaker net.

Fishing rods used for platform fishing or traditional hand fishing are mainly divided into long-section fishing rods and short-section fishing rods according to the contracted length. According to the storage methods, there are drawer-type (also known as vibrating type) and plug-in type (also known as parallel type). This paper mainly introduces the difference between the lower long section bar and the short section bar and how to choose it.

The length after storage is usually about 30 cm -60 cm. Due to the short length after storage, this fishing rod is more convenient to carry. Commonly used for stream fishing and outdoor leisure fishing. However, due to the short length of a fishing rod, there are many joints on the rod body, and there are also many stress concentration points when the rod body is stressed, which increases the probability of accidental rod breakage in extreme cases. In order to improve this situation, manufacturers will increase the wall thickness of each rod when making fishing rods. Although the wall thickness can improve the strength of the fishing rod, the overall weight of the fishing rod will also increase, so it is difficult to make the rod strong and the integrity is weak. In view of this, in the case that portability is the first priority, experienced anglers usually choose to use short-section fishing rods.

The length of the stored fishing rod is about 1 m, and the storage method of long-section rod is not only the same as that of short-section rod, but also the insertion method is added. Due to the reduction of contact surface on the rod body, the strength of long-section rod is relatively high. Compared with short-section bars, long-section bars can be made lighter in weight, straighter in shaft and better in integrity. In practical use, the handle of the long rod is better than the short rod, especially the plug-in fishing rod, the rod body can be made thinner, which will bring very good enjoyment to fishermen both visually and in use. Therefore, the medium and high-grade fishing rods on the market are usually long-section rods.
