Fishing rod is essential for fishing, and its quality directly affects the fishing process. How to choose a fishing rod has become a topic that most fishing enthusiasts often talk about. I will only publish some experiences on how to choose a fishing rod for your reference and sharing, and at the same time say that choosing a fishing rod should not blindly pursue high prices, but the one that suits you is the most suitable!
how to choose a fishing rod
first, observe whether the outer paint surface of the fishing rod is smooth, whether there are swelled bubbles, and the uneven places left by impurities on the paint surface. You can feel them with your hands. Then look at whether the pole mouth of each section is neat and the wall thickness is uniform. It should be noted that you should look at it before and after.
Secondly, pull out each section of the pole, and insert the pole into the next section in the opposite direction. For example, if a pole counts six sections backwards from the pole tip, then insert the pole tip of the first section into the second section in the opposite direction, and see how long the surplus of the pole tip left outside the pole mouth is, at least more than 2 cm, in turn, and insert the second section into the third section in the opposite direction. This method is used to check the overlap of fishing rod internal connection, and the overlap should be between 2.5 cm and 5 cm normally.
once again, assemble the pole, pull out all the poles and unfold them, then gently shake the pole to see if there is any strange sound. If there is, it means that there is a gap at a certain interface, and the lap joint is not tight. After checking which festival it is, lap it tightly and shake it gently again. If this phenomenon still occurs, you can't buy it at a lower price. Because this kind of pole increases your chances of breaking the pole and running fish. While checking the integrity of the fishing rod, we should pay attention to which part of the rod begins to bend when it is slightly shaken, from which we know why the rod is tonal.
Finally, hold the fully unfolded pole on a finger and adjust it slowly until the pole can be in a balanced state. At this time, the point where your finger is holding the pole is the focus of the pole. The more the focus is biased towards the tip of the pole, most of the gravity of the pole is biased forward. Normal pole focus should not exceed the first quarter. Finally, remember to ask the owner of the fishing gear shop if there is any original match for this pole and some questions about after-sales service. When everything is clear, you can buy it.
A fishing rod with excellent workmanship and beautiful appearance can not only make you enjoy fishing, but also reduce the consumption of physical strength and ensure the quantity and weight of fish caught. Therefore, how to choose a fishing rod has become a crucial issue for beginners. Every fishing rod has its applicability and pertinence. Beginners should choose fishing rods according to many factors at the beginning of choosing to buy. ? So how to choose a handy and satisfactory fishing rod? I think it should be considered from the following aspects: first, what is the target fish, whether it is crucian carp or carp; The second is the nature of fishing, whether it is leisure fishing or competitive fishing; The third is the material of fishing rod, whether it is glass fiber or carbon fiber; Fourth, the tonality of the fishing rod, whether it is 28 or 37 or 46; Fifth, the length of fishing rod, including the use of long section or short section rod; The sixth is the economic income situation.
the key points to be grasped when choosing a fishing rod: the first step is to check the appearance first. See if the words and patterns on the pole body are clear and vivid: whether it is a "three noes" product; Whether there is ISO-9 quality certification text; Step 2, clamp the fishing rod under the armpit, pull it out from the smallest detail, and check it section by section to see if there are cracks and scratches, and if there are gaps between sections; The third step is to see if the pole body is straight, shake it with your hand a few times, and feel whether there is a "creak" sound. If there is such a sound, it means that the grinding of the pole mouth is not good; Step 4, open the water leakage cover at the last end of the rod body, and check both ends of each section to see the smoothness of the inner wall to see whether the wall of each section is uniform; The sixth step, finally, see if the tonality of the fishing rod meets the requirements of fishing. ? When buying fishing rods, you should first look at the manufacturer. Many counterfeit products are marked as produced in Japan and South Korea, and the price is cheap. At this time, you should be careful. Genuine fishing rods are marked with the manufacturer's name or trademarks in Chinese. Don't just think that they are imported products just because they are beautifully packaged and have foreign words. ? The self-weight of fishing rod is the weight after removing the front and rear plugs and wire handles. Many manufacturers have set the self-weight of fishing rod very low for sale, so don't just look at the label on the package and ignore the real weight of fishing rod. Low self-weight doesn't mean that the fishing rod must be made of high-carbon carbon fiber cloth. In order to pursue high profits, some manufacturers make fishing rods from carbon fiber cloth, or make the wall of the fishing rod thinner and shorter, which saves the cost. The products are still light to the touch, and then the packaging is better to confuse fishing friends. The strength of such a fishing rod is not guaranteed at all.
carbon fiber cloth used in fishing rods is generally divided into high carbon, medium carbon, low carbon and carbon leather rods. Some manufacturers mislead us with the percentage of carbon content marked on fishing rods. In fact, in addition to high carbon content, many really good fishing rods are wrapped with reinforcing wires to improve the strength of fishing rods. Many defective reinforcing wires are painted, which can be seen from the back mouth. The fishing rod with hollow rod tip feels better than the solid rod tip, but the solid rod tip has an advantage in hardness and strength, so you should choose it according to your actual requirements. Fishing friends who catch large fish in the reservoir had better choose a fishing rod with increased wall thickness, while beginners still choose a fishing rod with moderate hardness, which can not only control the fish well, but also make the fishing rod feel more comfortable and the price is moderate.
generally speaking, the goods of regular manufacturers are slightly higher than those of small manufacturers, but their production equipment is advanced, their quality and after-sales service are reliable, and the sources of raw materials used are also guaranteed, so it is recommended that you buy fishing gear from regular manufacturers.
Next, I will talk about the fishing property of fishing rod. In fact, the fishing property of fishing rod is a very abstract term. How to define it? How to judge whether this fishing rod is in the key of 19, 28 or 37? Perhaps readers will use the previous concept to say, "Look at the bending angle of the fishing rod after being stressed to judge its fishing performance", OK, the question is coming, what is the stress on the fishing rod? How much force is it? 3 grams or 1 grams? In fact, the degree of stress on each fishing rod is not necessarily the same. How to distinguish it? It should be judged by the size of the fish at the beginning of the design, but it also involves the weight of the fishing rod. < P > What is the weight of the fishing rod? In fact, the same is a 15-gram hand rod. When the center of gravity moves forward, you will feel that this fishing rod seems to be heavier, otherwise you will think it is lighter. Then the problem comes again. Why not move all the centers of gravity of the fishing rod back, and it will feel lighter? No, the fishing rod with the center of gravity moved forward is for you to use when the fishing body is large. Because the backwash force will increase when the center of gravity moves forward, the fisherman can use the elasticity of the fishing rod to reduce his own strength when fishing. So do you think each fishing rod has a special purpose? As long as you choose the right fishing rod, it will not only make you enjoy fishing, but also make you relaxed and happy.
Based on the above points, the author sums up the selection of a good fishing rod into the following key points. Fishing friends can choose a fishing rod that suits them according to their own needs, including 1, hardness, 2, diameter, 3, weight, 4, balance point and 5, fishing speed. Here, the author takes pains to emphasize one key point, not to be lost by the appearance of the fishing rod.
Next, the author will introduce the problems of fishing rod materials and the processing methods. At present, almost all fishing rods made of carbon fiber materials are on the market, and the carbon fiber materials used in them are almost unknown to outsiders except the factory itself, and only the materials used can be roughly known from the advertisements. This is why the author emphasized in the first paragraph to choose a reputable brand. The author has internal information from the original Japanese factory at hand. For readers' reference, and you must use the company's materials to mark on the fishing rod, in which NVC stands for the carbon fiber material of the fishing rod is high-grade and lightweight, and SNVC stands for the highest-grade ultra-lightweight carbon fiber material. Of course, in addition to the material grade, the influence on the fishing rod can be said to be decisive in the whole rod-making method. In addition to vertical and horizontal coiling, there is also the so-called Loop processing method. That is to say, a layer of carbon fiber cloth is wrapped around the outside of the rod blank to imitate the lateral reinforcement. This fishing rod is of course more durable, but at present there is a processing method called LASER, which is actually the same as the way of Loop, except that the ultra-thin carbon fiber cloth is used in the lateral reinforcement, and the overlapping wrapping is added, which not only improves the strength, but also makes the surface smooth and beautiful.
