Fishing rods for every technique

One rod per technique

Each fishing technique has its own rod. The float rod, long and without a reel, presents the bait directly below the angler. The feeder rod, with a reel, casts a cage filled with groundbait and detects bites through its soft tip. The carp rod, powerful, casts heavy rigs far away and battles big fish. The spinning rod, light and responsive, animates lures for predators. The choice of rod depends on the target fish and the fishing spot.

The rest of the equipment

The rod equipment also includes:

• Reels.
• Rod holders.
• Detection.
• No kill.

All the equipment can be found on the rods page.

Feeder and float

The feeder rod, like the Korum Limitless or Barbel, the Preston Supera and Monster Xtreme Distance or the Guru A-Class, comes with several interchangeable tips of different stiffness: you choose the softest one that can support the weight of the cage, to see the lightest bites. The float rod with jointed sections, like the Matrix, consists of sections that fit together: you can add or remove sections to fish at the right distance, and the tip kits, with their shock absorber elastic, can be changed depending on the size of the fish.

Carp, predator and telescopic

The carp rod, like the Preston Dura Carp, is defined by its power, expressed in pounds, and its length: it casts far and tires big fish. The spinning rod, like the Shimano Aero, the Fox EOS or the Hearty Rise, is chosen according to the weight of the lures it casts, indicated in grams on the butt. The telescopic rod Okuma, which folds into a bag, is suited for casual anglers and travelling. Rinse the rod in fresh water after fishing and store it dry in a sleeve.

Frequently asked questions

What rod should I choose to start fishing?

A telescopic rod or a float rod is ideal for beginners: easy to set up, it allows you to catch small silver fish near the bank. You can then move on to feeder, predator, or carp fishing according to your preferences.

How do I choose the length of my rod?

It depends on the technique: a short spinning rod is more precise for casting a lure near obstacles, a longer feeder rod sends the bait cage far away, and a float rod can reach several metres for fishing without a reel.

What does the power indicated on a rod mean?

Expressed in grams for a spinning rod or in pounds for a carp rod, the power indicates the weight of the lure or rig that the rod can cast safely. Choose it according to the lures used and the targeted fish.

Is a carbon rod better?

Carbon makes the rod lighter, stiffer and more sensitive to bites than fiberglass, which makes it comfortable to use all day. Fiberglass, being more flexible and resistant to shocks, is still appreciated for children.

How do I maintain a fishing rod?

Rinse it with fresh water after each outing, especially after sea fishing, wipe the rings and reel seat, then store it dry in a sleeve. Regularly check the rings: a cracked ceramic can damage the line.
