Fishing rod

Found in 1 guide

Why you need it

The rod sets what you can realistically fish for. One sensible all-rounder covers far more water than a specialist you outgrow in a season.

What to look for

A medium-action rod matched to your water, around 7 to 9 feet for general use. Buy a rod and reel combo if this is your first setup.
