Fishing rod is one of the important fishing tackle in fishing activities, and every fisherman pays great attention to choosing a good fishing rod.

The types of fishing rods can be divided into single rod and multi-section movable rod according to the structural form; According to the purpose, it can be divided into hand pole and sea pole (also called throwing pole, wheel pole and throwing pole); According to the material, it can be divided into bamboo, reed, wood, aluminum alloy, glass fiber reinforced plastic and carbon fiber. According to the hardness of the fishing rod tip, it can be divided into soft-pointed fishing rod and hard-pointed fishing rod.

The following focuses on the production methods and performance of bamboo pole, reed pole, wood pole, aluminum alloy pole, glass fiber reinforced plastic pole and automatic fishing pole.

1. Bamboo fishing rod

Bamboo fishing rod has a long history. The ancients used a thin bamboo rod as a fishing rod. Some fishermen still use it now. At present, there are three, four, five, seven and more than ten bamboo fishing rods on the market. The methods and tools of pole manufacturing basically rely on manual and human scraper. The socket method of multi-section rods is to select natural rods with different thicknesses and connect them with the outer diameter of thin rods on the inner tube of thick rods. From the tip of the pole to the bottom of the pole, the thickness is very different, and the distribution of stress points and lifting load is uneven. The total length is generally 3 ~ 5 meters, and the lifting force is only 0. 15 ~ 0.5 kg.

Fishing rod has three socket ways:

(1) casing method: connect the upper and lower bamboo poles closely with several metal pipes or other national pipes. Several sections of rods are connected into a whole through a root sleeve. There is no longer the traditional connection mode of thick sleeve small sleeve. This kind of fishing rod has good elasticity and strength.

(2) Casing core insertion method: Take a thick section of bamboo, leaving a joint in the middle, the length is 16 ~ 18 cm, and the diameters of both ends of the bamboo section are similar to the inner diameters of the upper and lower joints, and then wrap the upper and lower joints tightly with a string for reinforcement. This is mainly inserted in the bamboo pole with larger diameter below to strengthen the strength of the pole body.

(3) Combined use of casing, ferrule and plug: On the basis of the above two methods, one casing is less used in the middle of the fishing rod, and the fine bamboo in the upper section is directly inserted into the wall of the thick rod in the lower section (the nozzle should be strengthened).

2. Reed fishing rod

Arundo donax grows fast, straight, round, long, short in section, light in weight, thick in wall, tough, flexible and heavy in load, so it is often used as a fishing rod by the people.

When using Arundo donax as a pole, it usually grows into 2 ~ 3 poles, and some people make it into 4 ~ 6 poles. The total length is 5 ~ 7.5 meters, and it can also be made 8 ~ 9 meters long. The manufacturing method of pole and socket is the same as the three manufacturing methods of bamboo pole. Reed bamboo pole is only 1/3 of the same kind of bamboo pole, so it is labor-saving to use, and it does not need to support the pole, so it has great buoyancy, and it will not sink when the pole tip is lifted on the water. Paint or vegetable oil should be used once or twice before making the rod seat to prevent moth-eaten and reduce water immersion.

3. Wooden fishing rod (throwing rod)

Wooden fishing rods are used for throwing rods, and the tough and elastic hard miscellaneous technologies such as chestnut, Sang Mu, elm and wax wood should be selected as the wood. Rod length 1.2m, rod tip diameter 1cm, rod bottom diameter 2.5cm, and the rod tip is sheathed with a pay-off ring; Leave 25 cm at the bottom of the rod as the grip, drill two small holes at the upper end of the grip, and install the winding box and the wire frame with ring respectively, as shown in Figure L. Among the three kinds of hooks in Figure 3, the first one is the Zhong Ding five-prong hook made of plastic yarn. Each of the five small corners is buckled with a medium-sized hook, and the length of the hook system is 5 ~ 6 cm, so that the hooks are supported by hard glass glue yarn; The second type is a thin steel wire ring with a diameter of 10 cm and five medium-sized hooks around it; The third is to tie five hooks on a bus, and the length of the tie line is about 5 cm. The weight of the weight is between 50 and 75g.

4. Aluminum alloy fishing rod

Made of seamless aluminum alloy tube, small 1 ~ 2 meters long, retractable, can be put into the bag. The big one is 3 ~ 4 meters long, and each section is 30 ~ 50 cm.

5. FRP fishing rod

Glass fiber reinforced plastic is an ideal pole material, which has the characteristics of light weight, hard quality, high strength, strong lifting force, bending resistance, compression resistance, corrosion resistance, acid resistance, mildew resistance, high temperature resistance, crack resistance and deformation resistance. The length is mostly 3 ~ 5 meters, and some are as long as 7 ~ 9 meters. The tip of this fishing rod is designed with an oblate hole, and the inner circle is smooth so as to pass through the fishing line; Drill a small hole in the middle or base of the pole, and you can install a pay-off device to catch big fish. This kind of fishing rod is complex and difficult to make, and the purchase price is high.

6. Automatic fishing rod (throwing rod)

Automatic pole consists of stainless steel light metal socket and bamboo pole head. The socket is an automatic fishing device consisting of a tension spring and a connecting rod, and the rod tip is provided with a thread clamping traveling ring, a guide ring and a clamping pin. When fishing, insert the two sections and fix them on the shore. Throw the lead pendant and bait hook into the water, clamp the main line with the wire loop, and hang the bell to wait for the fish to bite. When the fish swallows the bait and pulls the fishing line, it is easy to pull off the "live beard" of the blocking needle, so the fishing rod bounces violently due to the contraction of the spring, and the hook can automatically pull hard to hook the fish mouth tightly. This kind of fishing rod is small and exquisite, easy to carry, timely and accurate, and one person can operate multiple pairs. Fishermen can leave their positions at will and hang bells, which is suitable for day and night, fishing far into the deep water and catching big fish easily.

This fishing rod was invented by Comrade Qi Zuozhou, a member of China Fishing Association and a retired worker in Dalian, and produced by Baiyue Fishing Gear Factory in Yinxian County, Ningdu City, Zhejiang Province.

Second, fishing line.

A good fishing line should meet the following conditions:

(1) The tension is good, and bigger fish can be caught with thinner fishing line.

(2) good flexibility, not easy to break.

(3) Soft and hard curling, easy to straighten after curling, convenient for fish to swallow bait, and sensitive in response.

(4) The color is light, preferably close to the water color, and people are not easy to be found by fish after drowning.

(5) Not easy to deteriorate and not aging for a long time.

There are two kinds of fishing lines: wool and light.

Wool: refers to nylon thread with water-containing properties, which is soft and pure, and has no loop phenomenon after entering water, and can be used in all seasons. Nylon thread has great toughness and tension, and the thread body is white. The specifications are generally 3× 1, 3×2, 3×3, 3× 4...3 strands are 3× 1, and so on. The more shares, the thicker and stronger. 3 × 1 line can hold about 1 kg, and 3×2 line can hold about 2 kg. Generally, 3× 1 or 3×2 line is enough for crucian carp fishing.

Light: refers to the glass glue wire (nylon) without water, which has the advantages of strong tensile force, non-adhesion, transparency, no water and easy mixing with water color; The disadvantage is that the texture is hard and brittle in winter. The specification of glass glue wire, the international common unit name is "pound". 1 lb = 0.4536 kg. According to this calculation, the maximum load of 2-pound line is about 0.9 kg, and the maximum load of 3-pound line is about 1.35 kg. There is also a unit name for its gauge in China, that is, the line diameter is in millimeters, and the specifications are named after the diameter, such as 0. 15 line, 0.2 line and 0.3 line. According to the diameter of the line (symbol "") and the load, a line with a diameter of 0. 15 mm is equal to a line weighing 3 pounds, and the load is 1.35 kg. } 0.2 mm line is equal to 4 lb line, and the load is1.8kg; A wire with a diameter of 0.25 mm is equal to a wire with a load of 2.25 kg ... For example, the glass glue wire used for fishing crucian carp is generally moderate to 5 kg, and both big fish and small fish can fish.

The length of fishing line is generally 3.5 ~ 5 meters. If there is a pay-off, it may be equipped with a long line of 50 ~ 100 meters. Before launching the fishing line, check whether there is any deformation, hairiness or serious curling such as folding, rolling and wear. Usually the fishing line is best wrapped around the rafters, not tied; Be careful not to store it with chemicals such as gasoline, sulfur and mothballs, and don't hang it on the kitchen wall; Wipe off the dirt stuck to the fishing line after each use.

Third, fish drift

Fish float is also called float, buoy and fish float. Lightweight, with floating function. It can move up and down on the fishing line and adjust to a suitable position according to the depth of the water body. If the float is properly adjusted, it can sensitively, timely and accurately reflect the situation of fish eating hooks underwater. Due to the different habits and varieties in different regions, fishing floats are divided into 12 types for single-line fishing (see Figure 2).

1. Poplar float

The thin pencil rod is made of poplar branches, with a length of 8 ~ 15 cm (depending on the weight of the hook and the weight), and its two ends are conical. Cut a circle of grooves with a small knife at one end, and then cut a section of tap water to cover the grooves so as to cross the fishing line. Poplar floats can be painted as red and white poles. When in use, first test the depth of water, so that the upper end of the poplar float is flat or slightly lower than the water surface. Sink the hook under the bed; When the fish swallows the hook, the poplar floats from a straight state to an inclined or flat state on the water surface, which is a signal to lift the rod and hook.

2. Goose feather tube float

Pull off the main wing feathers on the goose wings, cut off the white transparent empty tube for storing gas, take two empty tubes and put them together, paint them with red and white pigments several times, then cut a section of bile duct and put it on the small head, and put on the fishing line. The use method is the same as that of poplar fish float.

3. Goose feathers float

Take the feather purlin (also called feather stalk) of the main wing feather of the white goose wing, and cut off the empty tube and feather piece. Cut the feather purlin into several sections with the length of 10 ~ 20mm, which can be used flexibly. For example, with a long pole, because the fishing line is long, it is more clear and obvious to use a long white drift. After the feather purlin is cut, it directly penetrates the fishing line vertically. When threading the glass glue silk thread, it is necessary to drill a hole longitudinally in the center of the feather stem with a corresponding small needle, and then thread the thread through this hole (the hole should not be too large, so as not to affect the accuracy of the feather stem). This kind of goose feathers floating one by one is also called "scattered floating". Generally, each fishing line has 10 ~ 12 short floats and 8 ~ 10 long floats. The advantages of using it are high sensitivity, high accuracy, many floats, fast response and easy to grasp the timing of hook lifting.

4. Goose feather stems float

Take a big feather from the wing of a white goose, cut off the empty tube and the feathers on both sides, leaving a feather stalk about 12 cm long, and poke a horizontal hole in the small head of the feather stalk with a needle to cross the fishing line. Then tie it with hooks and pendants. This kind of float is characterized by clear and obvious, high sensitivity, easy to grasp the fishing opportunity and suitable for catching big fish. When fishing, the drop should be large, and a horizontal hook should be used. Hook distance falling branch line 12 ~ 15 cm, vertically floating to the water level or slightly rising out of the water 1 cm. When the big fish swallowed the bait hook. Seeing a goose feather pole across the water, you can catch a big fish by lifting the pole and hook.

5. Chicken feather poles float

Cut it with the feather handle of the main wing of the white cock. Length, threading method and using method are the same as goose feather bleaching. Chicken feather floats are easy to break, and are usually used when there is no goose feather.

Chicken feather floats and goose feather floats are also called "centipede floats" among the people.

6. Colored plastic floats

Small plastic products, generally 10 mm long, spongy, with two pointed ends, red and white, have certain buoyancy, but lack expansion performance. After several uses, it will slide on the line by itself.

7. White plastic float

It is a cylinder with a length of 15 mm, and both ends are tied tightly with iron wires to prevent sliding. Usage is the same as goose feather float.

8. Garlic braids float

After the garlic bolt is air-dried, two or three sections of thin stems with the length of 1.5mm are cut, one end is tied tightly with a thread, and the other end is cut into a braid to make it spread out. The head of the braid is placed on the fishing line upward, so that the buoyancy of the braid is less than the weight of the hook, and only 2-3 fish are used for each fishing line. When fishing, make the braid drift away, and 1 ~ 2 is not underwater, which is convenient for observing the movement of the hook. This kind of float is suitable for fishing "cross hook".

9. and 10 Sorghum spike stems (reeds) float

These two kinds of floats were used by the ancients, but not many people use them now.

1 1. Red, yellow, green and fluorescent float.

This is a chemiluminescent float filled with fluorescent powder. It glows at night and is used for fishing at night. Use the same method as goose feather floating.

12. Table tennis float

Wrap the ping-pong ball with fine barbed wire and tie it to the fishing line. It is used for night fishing, just like a fluorescent float.

Four, lead pendant

Lead pendant, also known as pendant and weight, is an indispensable weight on the fish hook. It can help the hook sink to the bottom of the water quickly or throw it far away. It can also put down a part of the float and watch the fish eat the hook.

The pendant is made of lead or lead-tin alloy. The size and weight depend on the different fishing waters, and the hand pole pendants are mostly spherical and cylindrical. Most of the sea pole pendants are jujube pendants, cylindrical pendants or flake pendants. The casting methods of lead pendant include tin coating, wood mold welding, aluminum mold welding, wood clip casting tin, copper mold welding, aluminum mold casting copper and heavy casting. You can make it yourself according to your own needs.

Installation of plumb pendants: There are many kinds of pendants, and the installation location varies according to the habits and hobbies of anglers (see Figure 3). People give themselves different names according to their positions:

(1) No hook. The station hook is only used for fishing.

② The hook of the sky. The lead pendant is directly welded on the hook handle, and a threading hole is left on it.

(3) oblique hook. The lead pendant is small, 6 ~ 7 cm away from the hook. The float should keep the hook tilted.

(4) Hook. The distance between the hook and the water drop is 7 cm. This kind of hook is suitable for fishing under water with much silt and thick grass feet.

(5) Double skyhook. Two plumb pendants are connected together with short lines, and two different baits are installed for fish to choose from.

(6) Side branch double hook. Tie a small hook with a glass glue line on the lead pendant of the inclined hook. This is also a double hook with two kinds of bait.

(7) Single hook up and down. On the fishing line 6 cm above kareem abdul-jabbar, a small hook with upward hook teeth is fastened to form an upper hook and a lower hook, which are also used to hold different baits.

(8) Cross hook. The lead pendant is relatively heavy, installed on the fishing line, 6 cm away from the hook. When lead falls, two or three horizontal hooks can be tied at the same time, and different kinds of bait can be loaded.

Verb (abbreviation for verb) fishhook

The fish hook used now consists of five parts: hook tip, barb, bending part, handle and hook ear. Fish hooks are usually divided into three categories: big hooks, small hooks and big hooks.

1. Hook

Hooks can be divided into square barbed hooks and round barbed hooks (see Figure 4). The square hook is specially designed for rolling hooks and made of 14 steel wire. The hook handle is 47mm long, the mouth width is 18mm, and the hook tooth length is 13mm. The length of the round hook handle is 50 mm, the mouth width is 19 ~ 2L mm, the hook tooth length is 15 ~ 17 mm, and the material is 13 steel wire. Can be used for snakehead fishing and ocean fishing.

2. Small hook

Small hooks, usually used for fishing, are divided into several models and specifications. Hook types include round hook, square hook, angle hook, mixed hook, eagle hook and crooked hook. The hook handle and hook teeth are long and short, and the mouth width is wide and narrow, but the small hook has barbs, and the upper end of the hook handle is flat and annular, which is convenient for thread fastening. Hooks are generally made of 18 ~ 24 steel wires. This paper introduces some products of "Iron Anchor Brand" produced by Wuxi Lvbo Hook Factory, a famous hook factory in China. This brand has 10 kinds of hooks, and 150 kinds and sizes, and each hook has a number, which is convenient for anglers to identify and choose (see Figure 5).

Step 3 throw hooks

There are two kinds of hooks, one is a big hook for fishing without bait; The other is a small hook for fishing with bait. A small hook is an ordinary small hook. This paper mainly introduces the big fishhook (see Figure 6).

There are many kinds of large fishing hooks, mainly including cross-shaped double-headed hooks, three-toothed anchor hooks, multi-section centipede hooks and barbed rolling hooks.

(1) Cross-shaped double-headed hook: made of 12 ~ 13 steel wire, with hook pitch of 8 cm wide, middle height of 7 cm and hook teeth of 3 cm. The hook type is angle hook, and the hook teeth are parallel to the hook strip: the hook tip is sharp, and the steel fire is tough but not fragile.

(2) Three-tooth anchor hook: width 8 cm, height 7 cm, hook tooth length 3 cm, hook shape nearly square, and three teeth are triangular symmetry; The hook handles are connected by welding; The hook teeth are sharp and the steel fire is tough.

(3) Multi-section centipede hook: it is formed by arranging 5-7 smaller cross double-headed hooks with a hook distance of 7 cm. Because the arrangement looks like a centipede, the masses call it a centipede hook. The specifications of the cross double-headed hook used are: the hook width is 8 cm, the middle height is 6 cm, and the hook tooth length is 2.5 cm.

(4) Spiny rolling hook: among the above hooks (1), select five hooks, tie each hook with a tether with the length of 10 cm (nylon wire with the length of/10 lbs can be used), and then tie one hook every 10 cm to form a string on the hook throwing line. In operation, no matter which hook is hooked to the fish, the other hook can "roll" onto the fish, so people call it "spiny rolling hook".

Before fishing, check whether the hook is sharp. If the hook tip becomes dull or deformed, gently polish it with a grindstone (fine oilstone) before use. After each use, the bait on the hook must be taken out, dried and wound on the wire rack; Spare hooks should be wrapped in tin foil, or put in small bottles filled with fine bran and white powder, or put in butter boxes to prevent rust.

Six, pole frame

In order to reduce the fatigue of fishing, the fishing rod can be supported by a fishing rod bracket. There are two kinds of poles: high pole and short pole. The length of the high pole frame is about 60 ~ 150 cm. Metal brackets and plugs are used at both ends, and bamboo poles are used in the middle. Short pole frame, also called insert plate, is about 30 cm long.

Seven, fishing tools

After the big fish is hooked, because its weight has exceeded the load of fishing line, fishing rod and so on. , can't be directly carried ashore, must use tools to salvage. Commonly used are copying nets and hooks (see Figure 7). The net can be woven into a circle with iron wire, generally 30 ~ 35cm in diameter and 35 ~ 45cm in length. The netting should be soft light green nylon thread or nylon thread, not white thread. The hook can be made of No.6 stainless steel wire, the hook handle is about 1 m, and the hook tip should be sharp.

Eight, Liao grass hook

Fishing in waters with many aquatic plants, you must remove some aquatic plants before you can get off the hook. This requires a grass hook. When making, you can find a hard iron hook, tie it to the wooden handle, then insert it into the second section of the fishing rod, and tie the hook to the last section of the fishing rod with a strong rope, so that you can pull weeds. Pick up the grass and untie it.

Nine, hook device

Hook extractor is also called hook extractor. When the hook is deeply swallowed by the fish and cannot be taken out empty-handed, the hook can be taken out with a unhooker. When in use, first put the fishing line into the gap in front of the hook release device, then put the hook release device into the fish's mouth to hold the hook, tighten the fishing line, and then send it in and pull it out together. There are also folk bamboo hooks. One end of the bamboo piece can be cut with a fork.

Ten, earthworm box

Earthworms are afraid of water, light, covering and high temperature, but using dead earthworms as bait is not effective, so it is best to make a small wooden box, with a length of 15 cm, a width of 10 cm and a height of 5 ~ 6 cm. When you go out, put some fertile soil or rotten straw and soaked tea in the box, and then put earthworms. Take the inexhaustible earthworms home and continue to use them.

XI. Fish containers

In order to prevent the caught fish from dying out of water, the fish should be put into a fish-raising container and soaked in water. Containers include bamboo baskets and fish protectors woven with hard nylon thread, and some are made of plastic barrels. Note: When you put fish in the basket, you must first lift the basket out of the water and put the fish on the shore to prevent the fish from escaping.

Twelve. Hook device

In order to carry the hook conveniently and protect the hook and fishing line from wear and loss, it is best to make a hook device. The manufacturing method is as follows:

Choose a metal tube, bamboo tube or round stick as the inner core, choose a short tube slightly larger than its diameter around it, and then try to connect the two parts into a whole to make them inseparable. At one end of the tube, use the rubber hose (or rubber strip) of the bicycle valve core. Tie the string together into a circle, and then tie a small hook without barb on each hose (or rubber strip), and the hook tip will be exposed. The hook handle is tied inside. After all kinds of hooks are tied, they are hung on the small hook without thorns, so that it can be pulled out elastically for a certain distance, and then the hooks are hung on the big round short nozzle. A hook device can hang 20 ~ 30 groups of hooks. The structure of the hook device is shown in Figure 8.

Thirteen, night fishing lamp holder

In order to facilitate fishing at night, you can make your own lamp holder. The method is: weld the head of the old flashlight with round wire (or connect it with rubber band). After the head is covered, two thin wires are respectively connected or welded with the battery and the head filament. Then install a switch on the headlight, and the battery (flashlight battery) is bound with tape or boxed in Xiao Mu. The battery is put in the pocket or fixed on the belt.

Fourteen, bait machine

Baiting, commonly known as "nesting", is one of the important links in fishing activities. In order to ensure that the feeding is accurate, not affected by the wind and not washed away by the current, a bait feeder (also called bait feeder) is needed. There are several kinds of bait feeders. Here are three commonly used.

1. Use empty matchboxes or small plastic bottles.

Put the bait in the empty box, leave a gap in the matchbox, and then insert the fishing rod head into the gap of the box with the opening facing up. Gently send it to the nest, turn the fishing rod 90 degrees, and the bait can turn into the water. This is the simplest way to throw bait.

2. Auxiliary equipment for surface throwing

Cut off the bottle mouth with a small plastic bottle or a small light metal bucket and put a clip next to it. First put the bait in a bottle or bucket, hold the tip of the fishing rod with a small clip, then aim at the target, tilt the bucket and pour the bait into the water.

3. Underwater throwing auxiliary equipment

Make a small bucket out of scrap metal cans or metal skins, make two symmetrical ears on the mouth of the bucket, drill several small round holes on the bucket body, then make a hook out of thick copper wire, connect the hook with the bottom of the bucket with iron wire, and put the throwing aid into the water with a fishing rod when fishing. This is mainly used for nesting in deep water or underwater.

Fifteen, sitting on a stool

Fishing should bring a stool, which can be made of iron bars and canvas; Folding stool made of bamboo strips; A one-legged stool with one leg; Or put a board in the earthworm box as a simple stool. As long as it is convenient to carry and comfortable to sit, there is no need to pay attention to it.

Sixteen, fish floating Jane

The float tube can be made of bamboo or hard plastic pipe, and the length is subject to the longest float used, generally 25 cm. Because the fish float is light, brittle and easy to break, it needs to be kept in a jar.

Seventeen, fishing backpack

There are many things to carry when you go fishing, so prepare a shared backpack. The fishing backpack should be slightly larger, divided into two sides, and auxiliary appliances, baits, baits, etc. should be stored on one side. Store drinking water, towels, rain gear, food and other daily necessities.

Eighteen. Other tools

In addition to the tools and equipment mentioned above, scissors, bait boxes, thread gloves, knives, spare hooks, fishing lines, plastic bags, small kits, small ropes, buckets or nets for holding fish, etc.

I suggest you go to the fishing gear shop and ask the owner or find a fishing forum.
