1. Spinning Rods: Spinning rods are by far the most common types of rods. Fishermen prefer this kind as it is easily available in the market. These are perfectly fitted for both heavyweight and lightweight fishing. These rods can perform really well while catching walleye, bass and trout. The rods are devised with such strength and durability which powered enough to withstand the pressure or stress exerted by the fish on the-rod. This kind is designed as an eggbeater reel, while it is also useful for retrieving and casting baits and lures. The usual length of a spin rod is between 1.6m to 2.5m.
2. Jigging Rods: Jigging rods are perfect on commercial boats as they can easily handle large baits and heavy lures. These rods are sound enough to tackle the changing currents of ocean as these are made of very strong and solid material.
3. Surf Rods: Surf rods are the longest ones and they are also heavier then others as well. As these fishing rods are longest among others so they are little heavier than others. And because of their length and strength, surf rods are useful for catching big fishes. These rods come with a length of some where between 3m to 4.2m.
4. Carbon Fiber Rods: Carbon fiber fishing rods are hi-tech rods and these are mainly used for coarse fishing. These rods are made of a variety of carbon fibers. Fisherman can attach baits with these rods in such a manner that it will help them to catch big fishes.
5. Fly Rods: These kinds of fishing rods are perfectly fitted for catching fresh water fishes like halibut, salmon and trout. Fly rods are contrived mostly with carbon graphite. The three different types of fly-rods include:
· Bamboo Fly Rods: These are mostly preferred by anglers who go for local fishes. These rods are durable as well as are suitable for most kinds of fishing situations. Bamboo fishing rods are very flexible and lightweight and thus have got an upper hand over the others.
· Graphite Fly Rods: These are a little stiff and thus these are strong and effective. Anglers love graphite rods for their strength and performance while these rods are also available in various designs and patterns.
· Fiberglass Fly Rods: These are not so popular among anglers. As these are heavier than the other ones so they don't really attract anglers. But the best part is these are awesomely durable and thus cost friendly as well.
6. Tenkara Rods: These are smart ones that come with a combination of other types. These rods have all the facilities of carbon rods, fly rods, and telescopic rods. The length of these rods range from 11 to 13 feet. Tenkara rods are best know for their portability as these are of very light weight and their availability are also high.
7. Game Fishing Rods: These are fitted for deeper saltwater game fishing and these fishing rods are designed in such a way that they can catch large fishes like pelagic fish. Such rods are thick and don't bent that easily.
8. Boat Rods: These are not on mainstream fishing rods and are considered to be a subclass spin category. These are basically heavier and shorter than other rods and are mostly used in saltwater fishing.
9. Trout Fishing Rods: Trout fishing is a popular fishing sport and that's why anglers offer with The length of a trout fishing rod ranges from 7 to 10 feet. These rods are lighter than bass fishing rods. Most of them are made of granite and sometimes fiberglass.
Apart from the above mentioned fishing rods, there are others as well including crappie, bass, ice, sea, and ultra light.

Smooth-Hound Fishing
Smooth-hound are a very popular fish to target through the summer months giving tremendous sport on 12-20lb boat gear or uptide rods. There are two species of hound found around our coast, both are members of the shark family, these being the starry smooth-hound which is easily identified as it has a smattering of white dots or "stars" down it's back hence the name. The other is the common smooth-hound which has no markings on it's back and despite it's name is actually the least common of the two.
Both can be found over the same inshore and offshore habitats, often over tidal flats, off estuary mouths and in shallow bays with sandy, muddy or mixed bottoms .Offshore they are typically found around submerged banks and similar features where these sharks may rally in large numbers feeding on hermit crab, shore crab and other crustaceans with the bigger fish also taking squid and small fish.
These fish can both grow up to around 30lb in weight but fish between the 7-15lb mark are more common with a fish over 20lb being a good specimen but they are still caught fairly often. Smooth-hound travel in packs so it's not unusual to have three or four hooked up and fighting at the same time which often leads to the "am I over or under " dance as you move around the boat to stay in touch with the fish and can provide hectic sport while the pack stays in the area.
As mentioned light 12-20lb boat rods or uptide rods coupled with 7000 or 7500 size reels loaded with 20-25lb mono provide the best sport to catch smooth-hound with hermit or peeler crab being the best baits to use but they can also be caught on whole squid but not in as many numbers. Again the running ledger rig is all that is required, smooth-hound seem to prefer a longer hook length of around 60" made from 40-60lb mono and ending in a pair of 4/0 pennel mounted hooks, stepping up to 6/0 if using squid. Bites are easy to spot as they usually involve the rod bending in half and the angler wondering if he's hooked a passing submarine, so if your not actually holding the rod make sure it's tied to the rail as it'll be pulled in before you can grab it.
The boat and shore records are beaten most years but never claimed, the anglers instead preferring to return the fish rather than kill it to claim a record. But as the WFSA now accept claims from photo's, witness statements, certified scales and measurements these record weights will soon increase

enamal coating graphite rods?
im trying to work out how to enamal coat graphite rods to help them last longer while subjected to extreme temperatures. im using .5mmX1cm graphite rods and burning them with a 12v battery with alagator clips on each end. it burns brighter than the sun and my VS7 lenses are not dark enough to block out the light, or at least to the point where it is bearable. it can cut through aluminum cans like butter and can melt the steel alagator clips. it is pretty much carbon ark cutting. also, does anyone know where i can get heavier diameter graphite(other than just .7mm)
Apply nano technology for coating your carbon rods with some earth matter. That will really insulate it. Or for less insulation some metal oxide coating.
