Collapsible Fishing Poles: Rods, Reels And Fishing Equipment
By:
Published: April 19, 2007
When fishing rods are mentioned the first thing that pops into most people's minds is the Andy Griffith show, in which the two lead characters, Andy and Opie, are seen strolling down the road with fishing rods slung over their shoulders. Imagine how much more easier it would have been for Andy and Opie if they had collapsible fishing poles.
Granted, it wouldn't be as iconic of a scene, but at least poor little Opie wouldn't have a sore shoulder from carrying all that fishing equipment back and forth from the lake.
Kidding aside, collapsible fishing poles are fast becoming a popular item with beginner anglers. The versatility of these fishing rods makes them the perfect piece of fishing equipment for a person who likes to fish, but not every single day. Collapsible fishing poles are also great for travel and business trips when no one wants to carry around a huge, fishing pole. It can be easily stored and maintained in a small apartment or a large house.
Collapsible fishing poles generally come already put together. The actual fishing rods are broken into four sections. The base section is thickest and as the rod gets closer to the tip, it becomes thinner. The fishing rods can be also be separated for cleaning purposes. Fishing rods don't need to be cleaned that often, but it is necessary if left out in the elements.
Another important element of all collapsible fishing poles is the fishing reels. Like the rods, the fishing reels can be separated for cleaning purposes or to feed more lining into it. A thin line is recommended to fish for lighter fish like halibut and cod, and when fishing in clear waters, while a thick line is recommended to fish for for heavier fish like catfish and salmon, and when fishing in darker waters.
Even though collapsible fishing poles are easy to maintain, there is still some other pieces of fishing equipment that are necessary when going out for a day on the lake, or even just a couple of hours. Extra lining is needed just in case the line breaks or runs out. Also, bait is needed to catch fish. Most anglers use worms, nightcrawlers, and smaller fish.
Collapsible fishing poles and fishing equipment can be purchased online and offline at many different places. Sites like Ronco.com and Hammacher.com offer collapsible fishing poles. Stores like Target, Walmart, and K-mart also offers these types of fishing rods. Collapsible fishing poles are very affordable, ranging in price from $20-$40.
Whether it's a rare day at the lake or a trip every weekend, collapsible fishing poles are just the kind of fishing equipment for anyone on the move. With their low price tag, it's a wonder why everyone doesn't own one of these handy fishing rods.
