All about the right choice of spinning rod

Earlier, the rod market was so small and did not everyone know what spinning is that it was easy to make a choice. Since now the range has grown significantly, then you need to understand for what type of fishing will be used the rod, as well as what fish. The success of fishing on a predator largely depends on the correctness of the selection of the rod model, because before going to buy, you need to understand and know all the characteristics of the spinning, and also understand what the classification of spinning rods happens.

One of the most important points is to understand what. It can be:

  • Nano-jig.
  • Havi-jig.
  • Twitching.
  • Jerking.
  • Spoon.

There is no such thing as a universal spinning that will be suitable for all styles. You can use one rod, but it will be very uncomfortable and not efficient. There is a definite classification of spinning, which implies the use of every rod for his catch style.

Material of production

On the modern market, only a few materials are used for the manufacture of blanks. Even more than 20 years ago, it was possible to meet metal spinning, but now there are much more comfortable, flexible and at the same time strong materials on the blanks.

Fiberglass - One of the most common materials that is distributed in low-cost models. Of the advantages you can note the low cost and ease. Ideal for beginners who want to try themselves as a spinningist. Of the minuses it can be noted that it will not be sensitive and has a lot of weight.

Composite - This is a carbon fiber that has increments of fiberglass fibers. Such rods combine moderate rigidity and a satisfactory fortress. Good matching quality at average prices.

Carbon (graphite, carbon fiber, carbon fiber) - The most modern material. It has low weight, good sensitivity and high strength. Carbon has several subspecies on the presence of graphite.

These brands show the number of graphite in the rod. The higher the rigidity of the spinning, the feeling will be a blank. However, in harsh versions, the strength will be lower than in variants with a low graphite. In rods with a low indicator there will be smaller rigidity and low reaction rate.

Spinning design

Also, all rods differ in their design.

Composite spinning - meet most often and usually have two knees. They are considered the easiest and optimal option. They are connected inserting one knee into another, this fastener is called plug.

Telescopic - have 5 or 6 junctions that make high-quality spinning heavier and less reliable. The advantage of telescopes is that they have a small size, which is convenient for long journeys. Separate attention is required to pay for docking nodes, because these are the most vulnerable places.

Spentning length

Size is a fairly important indicator. Basically, it comes from 160 to 360 cm. The most running length is:


The advantages of long rods are that they allow you to throw the bait away and it is easier to work when quoting. However, they have smaller compactness and greater weight. Those that shorter are more popular for places where it will not work out a long rod. For fishing from the boat, the length is recommended not more than 210 cm. Such length will be optimal for homeing the fish to 3-4 kg.

Singing Spinning

An important spinning characteristic is the system of spinning rods, showing to what extent it can bend. All have 4 main types:

  • A - 14 part of the form is flexible. This is a hard spinning quickly building.
  • B - 12 part is bent - medium-hard system.
  • C - 34 part is bent - medium-soft system.
  • D - the whole - slow system of spinning.

The farthest cast can be performed by the spinning of a slow system, it also significantly softens the blows of large fish instances when digging and lowers the load on the fishing line and the coil. The hard type is characterized by the greatest capacity, but it has a lower casting range and less than all softens fish jerks. The middle of the stiffness of the form is the most versatile and in demand.

Test rod

Many when buying do not know what the spinning test is. Specified rod test shows which weight range of baits can throw them. On each spinning there is marking, therefore it will not be difficult to determine the weight spinning class. The weight of potentially caught fish, on the contrary, does not indicate, because with the proper technique of digging spinning in any case it will endure. The following options distinguish the following options:

  • - The easiest spinning test, but at the same time a fragile class. We apply to catch a small predator in small water bodies. Equipped with a thin line from 0.08 to 0.18mm. The length of such a spinning is usually 1.5 - 2.1 m. Ultrawite spinning helps to feel the struggle even the smallest perch and turn it into a fascinating process. The baits from 1 - 5 grams are allowed.
  • Light - Close to ultralite test rod. Light spinning services are used for bait weighing 3 - 10 g. The spinning length ranges from 2 - 2.5 m. It is also designed for small fish and is equipped with a thin line 0.1 - 0.23.
  • Mediumlight - Today is the most popular class. This is due to the fact that it has sufficient reliability and an extensive choice of bait weight. Weights can be from 5 to 25 g. With this class, you can have a sufficiently large chance of a successful fight against large fish specimens. Most often in this class, the fishing line 0.15 - 0.25 is used.
  • Medium. - middle class, which is applicable in large reservoirs, where the fish can grow to large individuals. The fishing line is used thicker, from 0.2 to 0.35 mm, and the weight of bait reach to 40 g. The length of such sticks is approximately 2.4 - 3.3 m.
  • Mediumheavy - middle class, which is applicable for large reservoirs. Have a test from 15 to 40 g. It is more often the size of 2.5 m and above. Allow you to make a longer cast and retrieve serious fish.
  • Heavy. - The most difficult class. Used mainly for marine fishing and trophy slave. . Have strong strength, and the length starts from 2.7m and higher. Equipped with the most thick saws of the fishing line and the most powerful coils. Test from 20 to 50 g

Test Spinning on Leske

Not so long ago, the rod began to be indicated by Line Test, which means the test on the fishing line. Test Liqukey shows what force on the rupture can withstand the fishing line on the rod. It is necessary that in the case of a strong loading of the fishing line, and did not break the rod. The test on the fishing line in kg or pounds (LB) is denoted.

Power Spinning

Power is one of the most important indicators. It can be different from the same building. Divided into 4 groups:

  • 1 class Spinning - allows you to use bait no more than 10 g. Ideal for fish up to 2 kg.
  • Grade 2. - Allows you to use bait from 10 to 30 g. It is suitable for fish 2 - 6 kg.
  • Grade 3. - Allows you to use the bait 30 - 60 g. It is recommended for homeing out large and strong instances from 6 to 12 kg.
  • 4th grade - Allows you to use bait from 60 g or more. Required for catching large sea fish.

Passing rings

A rather important part in any spinning is high-quality bandwidth rings and these requirements are imposed. On good rings there will be a smooth coating, which will avoid strong friction. Only so you can be sure that the fishing line will last long. It is impossible in the rings there were grooves and cracks. As a rule, very durable inserts are used in modern blanks.

Former previously popular ceramic rings for spinning, now lose attractiveness against the background of aluminum. Also known sital cement inserts for rings. Requirements for the inserts are that they stood firmly in rims and not spit.

Another requirement is that bandwidth rings must have rigid legs and legs. In the light spinning, the structures on one foot began to use. They are put on rods intended for use with non-sensitive coils.

Rings on the rod have different heights so that they form a cone from the spanking to the spool. In this case, the friction of the fishing line and rings is minimized, and the cast will be longer. However, large rings will be too large and uncomfortable for transportation. Therefore, something most optimal is usually chosen.

Serious requirements are also presented to the tulip. It is free to be durable, and the insert in it is particularly durable, because it accounts for a large load from friction of the working cord.

What is done handle

The rod handle is made of polyurethane foam or cork material. All these materials do not have strong advantages and disadvantages, it is important how they use them. The more famous to the brand and above the price of a rod - the usually the handle will be done better.

How to choose spinning when buying

First you need to be disturbed with the style of spinning fishing and in which visuals it can pass. It may be a sea fishing, where the length is important, or fishing from the boat, when the rod is required not longer than medium-sized. It should not be assumed that the cheapest product will have good quality, in the low price range there will be many low-quality products and fakes of well-known brands. Even when a good spinning is bought, it may be marriage or damage from transportation, therefore, it should be used to explore all the smallest details before buying.

The purchased thing is bought for many years, so before buying, you should carefully look at everything and, if possible, tested in place.

The appearance is required to carefully examine. An existing marking of rods must comply with the factory quality. It is necessary to make sure that the marking on the base of the whip corresponds to the toast tests. To check it, you need to dock the knee of spinning or push them until it stops when it is a telescopic, and then carefully loose. The knee must be connected tightly, eliminating turns and backlash.

It is necessary to check the rotation of the screws in the coil-holder so that when installing there is no distortion and other non-slip. By the way, the coil is better to acquire at first along with the rod.

To determine the rods of the rods need to bend it, pressed the tip to the floor, only not allowing the breakdown of the form. Stiffness is checked by vertical wave. During these maniulations, there should be no surveillance noise, which can be brought by spinning defects.

Can I buy a universal rod

Because the newcomers hunt all the styles and understand whether the predator will want to draw further, then the best budget option is to buy a universal rod. Under these conditions, the average-quick form of eight feet is suitable for a long and middle dough on the bait, 5-25 grams.
