Match rod - created in England

Catching on the match rod has long been widespread among our anglers. This floaty species originated in faraway England and spread very rapidly around the world. Thanks to this, its equipped rod is also called English tackle.

The advantage of it, first of all, is the possibility of catching fish, which at a certain stage of its life, and maybe constantly keeps away from the shore. And the match rod gives an opportunity to perform long casts, which distinguishes it from other gear intended for float fishing. Actually, this follows from its name, due to the length, sometimes reaching almost five meters.

Depending on its length, the match rod, which is usually equipped with standard equipment, has several sections for the convenience of its movement. In this case, it is better to use transmission rings with a small diameter and a high leg with a total number of up to eighteen. The coil also has certain requirements: it must have a small spool, so that the working line, whose diameter should also be small, was completely filled. This is necessary to ensure the maximum for the casting length.

Among other features of rigging, there are requirements for floats. Best for the match rod are vagleras - floats equipped with a single point of attachment with a center of gravity shifted towards it, and sometimes plastic plumage for a stable flight. In the rest, the rigging does not have any significant differences.

The match rod is of three types: classic, designed for carp fishing and for catching at long distances.

Classical type is considered the most popular among fishermen. The range he scores reaches almost forty meters with a weight of rigging not more than 25 grams. This rod is used primarily for the majority of medium-sized fish that live in freshwater reservoirs. The length of the rod reaches 420 centimeters, the system is usually parabolic or medium-fast.

The match rod, designed for carp, can not be considered complete for this fish, but the reserve of its capacity makes it possible to cope with the power of this strong fish. The structure is slow, parabolic, with the same length as the classical one. However, due to the thickening of the walls, this match rod has a somewhat greater weight.

For ultra-long casts use the most "long-range" tackle, capable of throwing a float to a distance of fifty or more meters. Such a match rod in certain circumstances is simply irreplaceable. Its structure has the upper parameters, ranging from medium to fast values with a length of up to 480 centimeters.

For convenience, some manufacturers make a telescopic telescopic rod, the knees of which are stacked one in the other. Compared with another type - plug-in - telematch, although it loses strength and build, but for convenience of transportation and use has no equal. In addition, with the help of modern materials manufacturers are able to improve its consumer characteristics.

When choosing a match rod, it is necessary to evaluate its range, comparing with a similar, having the same length and test. To do this, you must make a strong swing, and then compare the curves on the bend. Wins the rod with a more even and soft bend.
