Which rod to choose?

Lure weight

To choose your rod correctly, you must first take into account the weight of the lures you are going to cast. The maximum weight must not exceed the intended casting range of the rod.

Rod length

Then, regarding length, a rod for boat fishing will tend to be shorter (up to around 2m30) in order to stay within the transducer beam, for example, but also because, unlike a rod for fishing far from the bank which will tend to be longer (from 2m40-50), you will have fewer obstacles to navigate around, fewer casts into the wind, etc.

Whether you are a beginner or an experienced angler, a sea bass, pike or zander fisher, etc., make your choice and get ready for epic battles with the most powerful opponents.
