TFG Fishing RodsTFG Fishing RodsMany anglers seem to be under the illusion that a good fishing rod has to cost a ton of money ,they don't. This is a fallacy, sold to you by outfits trying to get more money out of you. I'll admit that Shimano fishing rods, which are quite expensive are really nice and light, however they aren't the only ones that catch fish. Cant say that I have caught more on them than any of my cheaper rods As a matter of fact, in most cases spending more on a fishing rod isn't at all necessary. In this day and age you can get a very nice, and serviceable fishing rod for under seventy pounds. Also you can actually fish with it rather than worry about damaging it. I've also seen many anglers who have just one rod for all of their fishing. This makes no sense at all. When you use your pike rods or carp rods on one trip you wouldn't then use them for stick float fishing. Fishing rods are inexpensive enough that every angler should have at least two fishing rods at their disposal and if I am anything to go by you will probably have 1 for most occasions. As an angler, your fishing rod should be matched to the type of fish that you're attempting to catch. For example, for most trout fishing an ultra light fishing rod should be employed. Not the same medium action rod that you use for big barbel fishing, but a separate trout fishing rod. The bottom line is that fishing rods don't have to break the bank. There are affordable rods out there that work very well for almost every fishing situation. In fact, they are affordable enough that you should have different rods for different situations . Matching your fishing rod to the size of fish you intend to catch will result in more bites, which will result in more fish, it's as simple as that. Which will result in more fishing in the long run
