Getting To Know About Fly Fishing Rod
A fly fishing rod can be found in lengths generally ranging from 6’ to 15’. Look hard enough you can find probably find ones even shorter and even longer. There is no direct correlation between a rod’s length and the species that it can handle. A 15’ two-handed spey fly rod is not intended for pursuit of a 500 pound billfish. It is best suited for salmon and steelhead that may range, typically, from 6 to 25 pounds. The length of a general-use saltwater big game rod is around 9’. You might also select a different 9’ rod that is perfectly suited for small trout and panfish. Here’s how to envision the difference. Think of a willow branch and a billiards cue stick of the same length with line guides on them.
