CHOOSING A LURE ROD
It may seem remarkably obvious to tell you how important a fishing rod is for fishing, but if there is one thing that has struck me about the lure fishing scene, it’s how much that lightweight lure rod you carry around with you is going to be so much easier, efficient, and just downright nicer to fish with, if it is feels more like an extension to yourself rather than a stiff stick which ends up working against you.
Coming from the bait fishing it can feel very strange when you pick up a 9ft lure rod rated to cast in the region of 10-30g, as opposed to something that may be 13ft, or longer, and rated to cast 6oz, but it will make sense; I promise you. So, what sort of lure fishing rod should you be looking at?
