A collection of fishing rods A fly fishing rod Line guides on modern fishing rods Fishing with a fishing rod. A fishing rod or fishing pole is a long, thin rod used by anglers to catch fish by manipulating a line ending in a hook (formerly known as an angle, hence the term "angling").
Template documentation Usage Although there are over two hundred Wikipedia guidelines, this sidebar contains the most foundational or frequently referenced, organized by the categories defined in Wikipedia:List of guidelines , some of which are headings and the others contained under the heading "Other".
The rod may be equipped with a reel so the line can be reeled in, and some form of bait or a lure attached to the hook. Fly fishing is a special form of rod fishing in which the reel is attached to the back end of the rod, and heavy line is cast with a complex, repetitive whipping motion to deliver the ultra light artificial fly to its target.
The basic technique is to quickly flick/swing the rod forward towards the water, with the inertia of the tackles lagging and bending the rod backward (i.e. "loading" the rod), and then use the "springing" (elastic rebound) of the rod to "hurl" and rapidly sling the line forward, which in turn will launch out the hook and bait.
