Selection of length

Before buying a fishing rod, you must first determine the length of the fishing rod, whether to buy a long rod of more than one meter or a short rod of about 600 mm

Because the long-section fishing rod lacks several joints, it not only bears more uniform force when used, but also has lighter weight. Don't underestimate the weight of these interfaces. In the playground with dense fish, it needs thousands of strokes and pole lifting every day. Even if only a few grams of weight is added to the fishing rod, the labor intensity will be very different.

The advantage of short-section fishing rod is that it is easy to carry. Whether it is put in a basket or a rod bag, or even tied horizontally to the back hanger of a bicycle, it has little impact on safety. The disadvantage of short section bar is that there are several joints, which are not only less uniform in stress than long section bars, but also heavier than long section bars under the same length.
