1)
any fishing rod (a device to carry and project a fishing line, hook(s) and bait or lures. The construction of rods is both a craft and a science and there is an immense variety of types)2)
a very long rod blank, held by hand and fished directly over the water, and used in matches and speed coarse fishing. It is made of sections that can be disassembled for carrying or be telescopic. Size range is 12.5 to 20 metres. A whip pole has the line tied directly to the end of the pole and is used to catch very small fish while elasticised poles have elastic threaded through the top three sections. These long poles enable a float rig to be placed exactly in position without casting, directly under the pole tip. Various other equipment items are used to manage the long pole and are mentioned below. Others include pole U rests (a rod rest set up as a U nearer the water with a second one set up as an inverted U to the rear - the rod rests in the forward U and hooks under the rear U), pole seats which have a central groove running between the sitting angler\'s legs where the pole fits, pole winders which are H-shaped plastic structures for storing the float rig on and protecting it, and pole winder anchors that are silicone rubber structures used to hold the loose end of a rig on a pole float winder to stop the rig unraveling
