Length is a matter of preference
Posted December 12 2011 view comments
The length of the rod used in bass fishing is actually a matter of preference for the fisherman. It is true that the longer the length of the rod the more sensitive it is but there is a limit to how long a rod can be. A longer rod can also be a killer when it comes to casting which can turn out to be too difficult with that much length. Choose a rod that is comfortable to cast since the longer it is the better your cast should be but if you already have some difficulty casting a long rod then forget it. Shorter rods are supposed to easier to handle but may be difficult to get a good cast out of.
