Top 5 Saltwater Pole Reviews - What Are the Pros and Cons of Each
Saltwater Fishing is a lot different from freshwater fishing. Therefore, you will need different types of equipment. One of the main decisions you will make will be choosing the type of Fishing Poles that you use. The type you choose will depend on what type of saltwater fishing you plan to do.
Before you buy your saltwater fishing poles there are a few things that you should take into consideration. The three main types of saltwater fishing are inshore, offshore and Surf Fishing. When you go inshore fishing you will stay mainly in the shallow water. This means that most of the fish you catch will be of small to medium size. You will need to purchase a Fishing Pole that is strong enough to hold up to approximately a twenty pound fish without snapping. However, at the same time it needs to be lightweight enough to not induce fatigue. Saltwater fishing poles are also designed for fishing from piers.
There are two methods and two types of fishing poles used when inshore fishing, they are listed below along with a brief description.
Spinning Fishing Poles -These poles are similar in design but they are used with a Spinning Reel. The beginner may find this type of rod and reel to be the easiest for them to use. Lightweight lures will also work very well with this type of fishing pole.
When offshore fishing you will encounter larger fish and you will need saltwater fishing poles that can also endure the extra weight you will be dealing with. The three methods used for offshore fishing are listed below.
Bottom Fishing
Trolling
Fly Fishing
Surf fishing is growing in popularity and the saltwater fishing poles designed for this type of fishing are considered specialty poles. They are designed to be used with both the conventional Casting Reels and Spinning Reels. They are designed in three different lengths which are nine, twelve and fourteen feet long. These long lengths will allow you to make longer casts but you should be prepared for them to be a little heavier than many of the other fishing poles.
Once you have determined what type of fishing you plan on participating in, you should take into consideration the special quality of each saltwater fishing pole. There are four main qualities that separate one fishing pole from another. These are listed below.
Total Length
The butt of the fishing pole is the distance between the very back end of the pole and the reel. The casting poles have the shorter butts followed by the spinning pole and then the bottom saltwater fishing poles or trolling poles have the longest butt lengths. It is up to the angler to choose the one that suits their size the best.
