Fishing rod

A fishing rod or a fishing pole is a long, flexible length of glass fibre composite, carbon fibre composite or, classically, bamboo, used to catch fish. In contrast with subsistence and commercial fishing, which usually involve nets, fishing rods are typically used in the sports of angling and competitive casting. At its simplest, a fishing rod is a simple stick or pole with a line ending in a hook. To entice fish bait or lures may be added. To aid in playing a fish more line, stowed on a reel, is common. Fishing rods vary in flexibility and length, varying between 2 and 20 feet. The longer the rod, the greater the mechanical advantage in casting.
