Casting Rod Rods
What is the difference between a spinning rod and a casting rod??
Spinning rods are designed to have progressively larger eyes on the guides as you go from tip to handle. The larger “stripper” guide (the one closest to the handle/grip) is necessary because spinning reels release line in a round coil. This coil, if restricted, will come off the spool slower, causing shorter casting ability. The larger eye on that first guide lets line off naturally at first, and then the progressively smaller guides tighten the coil gradually allowing the line to flow from the tip guide smoothly and uncoiled.
Casting rods have almost no progression in guide eye size. The reason being that line from a casting reel comes off straight, not coiled. Therefore, there is no restriction caused by the line, and the line will flow straight from the reel through the tip guide.
Casting reels mount on the “top” of the casting rod.
Spinning reels mount on the “bottom” of the spinning reel.
Both types can be made with the same materials (fiberglass, graphite, composite…etc), handle composition (EVA foam, cork, graphite), and guide materials (ceramic, steel, titainium…etc).

Tie Rods $53.99 HydroDynamics Tie Rods If having one front tire take a 90 degree turn while 5th gear pinned isnt an option for you run HDUSA Tie Rods! All HDUSA Tie Rods are manufactured using only the best seamless 304 Stainless Steel or Chromoly Alloy. Stainless Steel being an extremely hard metal by nature is NOT heat treated to help prevent the rod from breaking. When a tie rod reaches the point of failure we prefer they bend not break dont you Computerized stress analysis proves that the failure point between heat-treated and non-heat treated 304 Stainless Steel is insignificant. The heat-treated material as used by some of HydroDynamics competitors has more of a tendency to break at that point instead of bend. Not good! |
