I'm sure you know
Tip action rods flex in the upper third I find that anglers do exchange terms a lot. My feeling is that Fast, medium and slow describe the recovery of the rod, and tip-through action describe how a rod bends when it is flexed and loaded.
What rod do you like to use for general trout fishing, Lasse?
Thank you for the welcome!
Kind regards
Nick
Sorry about the delay, travelling in the US.
Actually I don’t know, every single rod I have ever thrown will bend into the butt, but I guess you are talking about a "extra super fast" kind of sales blurp
Something like this:
And like James, they can all be thrown with whatever technique one likes
But people like Paul who spends days in a jungle having nightmares about ghost women coming to steak his rods, sort of dream up limitations on tackle, so I can see where you'd get the ideas from
The rod tip is basicly always pulling on the line when we cast, pushing a string is damn hard, and would be a very ineffectieve way of trying to cast
Cheers
Lasse
