The A-Z of fishing rods

Whether you’re an experienced angler looking to upgrade your rod, you’re just starting out, or you’re looking for your kid's first fishing rod - at Freddy’s the options are endless. We pride ourselves on having anything and everything that you could want from your fishing rod - so let’s look at where to start.

How to choose the right style of rod

There are a number of different styles of fishing rods available depending on the type of fishing you are likely to undertake. For beginners, a spinning rod is an ideal solution as they’re good for practising and refining your skills. If you’re a more experienced angler looking for a strong rod that has exceptional control for catching large fish, you can’t go past a baitcaster rod. At Freddy’s, we have a range of rods crafted specifically for your fishing location, such as surf rods, rock fishing rods and boat fishing rods.

How to choose the right size

Our range of fishing rods come in a variety of lengths, each purpose-designed to suit the kind of fishing you want to do as well as the types of fish you want to catch.

A 6 or 7ft rod is ideal for lake or boat fishing, particularly if you’re wanting to catch strong fish that swim close to the hull. A good rule of thumb is the longer the rod, the further it can cast. Because of this, if you’re an avid surf or rock fisher - a longer rod of 8-10ft would be perfect.

How to choose the right materials

Our range of fishing rods are made from a number of different materials, such as fibreglass, graphite and composite materials.

Typically, a fibreglass rod is more durable and ideal for rougher seas and waters where your line is likely to get snagged. This durability does mean that the rod can be quite thick and therefore less responsive to your movement which many anglers find hard to manage.

Our range of graphite fishing rods are the go-to option for longevity, and control and for those that enjoy fishing with lures.

If you’re looking to spend a bit more for quality and high performance our range of composite fishing rods are ideal.
