Telescopic vs Match rods: always buy Match if you can. Otherwise, I'm not aware of any affect to gameplay. I haven't confirmed this, but it's what I've been told. A lighter rod will bend more, allowing you to get better leverage against lighter fish.Īs far as guides are concerned, I've heard that rods with fewer guides will cast farther due to the reduced friction on the line. A heavy rod is much more stiff and better suited to heavier fish.
If your drag is set properly, then you shouldn't have your line break under normal circumstances.Īs to the action, that's basically a simple rating for how responsive the rod will be. If the closest reel you can buy is 9.9kg, then you need to use line that is 9.9kg or less. For instance, if your rod has a 10kg test strength, you need to use a reel with 10kg test strength or less.
Basic rule: your rod should be the heaviest piece of equipment, followed by your reel, followed by your line.
