Perhaps you are a beginner or an advanced fisherman; or maybe you are young and just starting out learning to fish; or maybe you’re an expert who has been fishing for what seems to be forever. Whichever one you are, you have something in common with the others – you have to choose which equipment you will use to go fishing.
There are many types of standard fishing equipment in the marketplace, and there are a lot of options available for fishing rods. One of the unique options is the mini fishing rod. Choosing a mini fishing rod and reel to include in your set of fishing equipment makes sense if you want to be prepared for unexpected or surprise fishing opportunities.
The idea behind the the mini fishing rod is to have functioning fishing equipment that you can pull out of your pocket or the glove box and cast away! The mini fishing rod is made of stainless steel and polished aluminum. It looks like a writing pen when closed. However it is actually a very durable fishing pole when extended that can catch fish up to four pounds.
When the mini fishing rod is closed up it is approximately eight inches in size. When fully extended, it can be up to 38 inches long. The shipping weight of the mini fishing rod is approximately two pounds. The mini fishing rod has a capacity of 120 yards on a 5-pound line. You can purchase a mini fishing rod and reel combo package.
There will be two slots located on the base where you can slide in a reel that is also made of stainless steel. This reel has a forward and reverse ratchet stop with a drag control and casting block. There are also additional accessories that can be purchased along with your mini fishing rod to take advantage of unplanned opportunities to go fishing. Small jars of bait like trout pellets, light line and spinning lures can be kept in a plastic pouch that will fit compactly with your mini fishing rod and reel in your briefcase or backpack.
With your mini fishing outfit, you won’t always have to wait until you can go on that planned fishing trip. You will be ready when that surprise fishing chance comes to you!
