LURE FISHING ROD ACTION

Another parameter very important in lure rods, Action! It characterizes the reaction speed of the blank, its ability to take a neutral position after bending, and the magnitude of its curvature. This setting is useful for determining if a rod is rather stiff with a flexible tip (fast), or even with just the tip of the active tip (super fast – extra fast) which will be very sensitive, ideal for precise casts and fisheries where you need to detect the most subtle bites (rubber jig, Texas rig). Or on active two-thirds of the blank (slow action), therefore softer and quite capable of dampening the violent attacks or avoid short breaks. This will be an ideal share for fisheries of retrieved lures (spinnerbaits, crankbaits). Between these two extremes you will find a range of versatile intermediate actions that we classify as “normal” (regular) or semi-fast (regular-fast). As usual it is a basis and everyone will find comfort even outside these rules.
