Understanding Your Needs
When you’re shopping for a fishing rod, it’s important to understand what you need in order to find the perfect one for you. Different rods are designed for different purposes, so be sure to consider your experience level and budget when looking for the right fit.
The type of fishing you plan on doing, your size, and the area you’ll be fishing in all affect which type of fishing rod is best for you. For example, a light-weight rod is great for throwing line out into shallow water or around rock, while a heavy-duty rod is ideal for trolling in deeper waters or fighting fish in open water.
Once you’ve selected the type of fishing rod that’s right for you, be sure to test it out before heading into the waters. Make sure the rod is long enough to cast comfortably and reel in what you catch. And finally, always make sure to read the manufacturer’s recommendations before using your new purchase. This will help you learn how to care for your gear properly to help increase its longevity.
Learn the Different Rod Types
Different types of fishing rods come with different capabilities and uses. While there are a few that you should use to target specific types of fish, other fishing rods can be used for a variety of different activities. Here’s a look at some of the most common types of fishing rods and what they can do:
Shoot-through rods: These are typically designed for novice anglers and are meant for quick and easy fishing. They typically feature a shorter length with lighter weight and are perfect for smaller streams, ponds, and rivers.
Wake-fishing rods: This type of rod is often used by saltwater anglers to catch species like tuna and billfish. Wake-fishing rods are longer and heavier than point-and-shoot rods, making them better suited for reaching out into deeper water. They also come with features like jumbo hooks that help you land bigger fish.
Bass-fishing rods: Bass-fishing rods are specifically designed for catching big bass fish in shallow water. They feature a heavy body with a long grip to give you more power when casting. Many bass-fishing rods also come with different types of lures to help you snag your target.
Offshore fishing rods: Offshore fishing rods are specifically designed for fishing in cold water or ocean environments. They feature a thicker shaft and blank that makes them more durable in colder waters. These rods are also equipped with heavier line weights and larger hooks to help you land bigger species.
While there are a few general types of fishing rods, each individual angler will likely need a different type for their specific needs. To find the perfect fit for you, be sure to take into account your experience level, budget, and target fish species. Then, test out different models to see which one feels best in your hands. If you’re still undecided, ask an employee at Sportsman’s Warehouse for guidance.
