What are English Fishing Rods Used For?

English fishing rods are designed for float fishing , a technique that requires great precision and sensitivity. They are perfect for casting and maneuvering light lines, thanks to their slim and balanced structure. English rods are usually longer than other types of fishing rods, often between 3.90 and 4.50 metres, and are used in combination with English floats, which allow you to cast bait over long distances with extreme precision.

Types of English Fishing Rods

English fishing rods, or "match" rods, are divided into different types to adapt to various fishing conditions and specific techniques. Choosing the right type of English rod can make the difference between a successful day of fishing and a frustrating one. Here is an in-depth look at the main types of English fishing rods:

• Traditional Match Rods : Traditional match rods are designed primarily for long distance float fishing. They are generally between 3.90 and 4.50 meters long and are characterized by a fluid action that allows precise casts and good line management. These rods are versatile and suitable for a wide range of fishing conditions, from lakes to canals and moderately current rivers.
• Feeder Rods : Although mainly associated with feeder fishing, some feeder rods are also suitable for English fishing. These rods are stronger and more flexible, designed to cast heavy feeders and tackle larger fish. Feeder rods are ideal for environments where you need to cast heavier baits longer distances.
• Pellet Waggler Rods : Pellet Waggler rods are specifically designed for casting floats with pellet baits. These rods are typically shorter (around 3.30 - 3.60 metres) and have a stiffer action to facilitate repeated and accurate casting of loaded floats. They are particularly useful in ponds and carp fisheries, where pellet waggler fishing is widespread.
• “Stick Float” rods : stick float rods are long and light, ideal for fishing in rivers with stick floats. These are rods with a length that can vary from 3.90 to 6 meters, designed to work in current. These rods offer good line sensitivity and control, allowing anglers to handle light floats in variable flow conditions.
• Power Match Rods : Power Match rods are a more robust variant of traditional match rods, with greater power and resistance. They are ideal for catching larger fish, such as large carp, in environments where greater rod strength is required. These rods are perfect for situations where a combination of precision and strength is needed.
