When buying a fishing rod, first of all, you should pay attention to its length. Some products are also marked with length, but they are not the actual length used, but the total length including the interface, after removing the interface length, the actual length of the rod will be one or two hundred millimeters shorter. When measuring the length of a fishing rod, it is best to carry a ruler to measure it, or you can make full use of the resources on site to measure it. For example, the standard length of the counter is 1.8 meters, and the floor tile also has a fixed width, put the fishing rod on the counter, the length of two counters is exactly 3.6 meters, and three counters is exactly 5.4 meters, which is exactly the standard length that the premonition should have. You can also put the fishing rod on the ground, then count the number of floor tiles, then multiply the length of the floor tiles, the length of the fishing rod is counted.
The paint on the rod determines whether the rod looks beautiful or not, which is a face project. First of all, you should pay attention to observe whether there are scratches on the rod body, and then feel over the rod with your hand to check whether there are bulges or dents on the rod. This check is the key to the quality of the rod and should not be sloppy. If you find this kind of rod with bulge or dent in a certain brand, you should put it on your blacklist for a certain period of time, because it is defective in the process and should be a substandard product. We also have to check the interface, extend each section of the rod, then check the gap of each interface, the gap at the interface should be within 20 silk, if each interface of a rod exceeds this range, I will not pick this rod anymore. Finally unscrew the back plug of the rod, take out each section of the rod one by one, first observe the two ends of each section, observe whether the wall thickness is even, if the thin thickness is uneven, then you have to say sorry. Then check the inner wall of the rod against the light, the inner wall must be shiny, can't see the rolled interface, if there is an interface or stubble, you have to give up this batch of rods immediately. As already mentioned, the rod is rolled, and while it is rolled, the rod is also subjected to heat pressure to melt the material divided into several layers and fuse the rolled rod body into one. If there is an interface or stubble in the rod body, it means that there is a problem with the hot pressing temperature of the rod.
When buying a fishing rod, you should also pay attention to whether the overall force of the rod is uniform, which is the key to the use of performance. Many small and medium-sized manufacturers produce rods, only the second half of the rod, the first three sections are often outsourced. You can imagine, a two eight tuned fishing rod installed four six tuned first three sections, in use, what will happen, and then, for example, a four six tuned fishing rod installed two eight tuned tip, its overall force is uniform? If the overall force is not uniform, it will affect the transmission of force, and there will be a hard spot at the change of tune, so that the force here is much larger than other positions, and the rod will be pulled off here after the force at this point exceeds the limit. How to test the rod to withstand uniformity? We first tied a good line on the rod, the other end of the line tied to some heavy objects, and then lift the rod, so that the rod to bear the weight, at this time, in the side can clearly see whether the rod is evenly stressed.

The last item to check when buying a fishing rod is to challenge the lowest limit of force on the rod, picking up an item with a weight of 500 grams or more. If a fishing rod cannot pick up this weight, it has no value to exist. Some people may ask, where to find the right weight of items?

How to choose the tuning of a fishing rod
About rod tuning tuning refers to the degree of softness and hardness of the rod, inevitably bending when the rod is under weight, hard tuned rods bend less, soft tuned rods bend more. Hard tuned rods are not as flexible as soft tuned rods, the rod body absorbs and consumes less energy, so you need to use relatively thick fishing line, you can slip the fish out of the water in a relatively short period of time, to put it in a rustic way, there is a certain degree of raw pull factor.
