SHAKESPEARE Micro Spinning Rod

Product Information

The crystal clear and still water that is often under ice results in picky fish, and these small lures help entices these selective fish to bite. The fishing reel, which is made of plastic material, is so durable, delicate and nice for you to catch a big fish. a small fly fishing strike indicator and some small split shots will work ok but traditional japanese tanago floats are the best floats for the job. Savage Gear SG2 Micro Game Spinning Rods - 198cm (6ft 6in) - Rating of Super Ultra Light - Action Moderate - Power 1-3. Barbless hooks lessen damage to the fish, however; this can be frustrating because of the difficulty in landing hooked fish.

most micro fishing will be be sight and the places fished are usually very tight, anything over 7′ can be more of a limtation than an advantage.

The tip is on the whippy side but the rod quickly becomes stiff lower down, preventing the entire rod from behaving in a whippy manner. They definitely make catching small fish fun and they are also quite reasonable choices for sunfish, modest trout, crappies and even small bass. All the rods in the range have the same handle and guide spacing configuration and come in a Cordura tube and bag. currently only two specially designed micro rods are available to American and British anglers, these rods are the daiwa soyokaze and the shimotsuke kiyotaki.

Another attribute that is very important to me is that I want the rod to be sensitive enough and soft enough that even a small fish will put up a fight. Whether you’re using a micro fishing rod, micro fishing hooks, or a complete micro fishing setup, the thrill of catching tiny fish is unparalleled. My response to that is to ask how much enjoyment do you get out of catching minnows and would you enjoy it more with lighter, more sensitive micro fishing rods that would allow you to actually feel the fish on the end of the line? Great little spinning rod (can be used for drop shotting) Very well made , nice real cork handle, good reel fittings, cast very well, was a bit dubious about the S/S rings but they work fine with a small fixed spool and 8lb braid. Japanese tenkara rods designed for tanago can be excellent micro fishing rods but the best models tend to be expensive and other are short and difficult to use unless on a dock or structure immediately adjacent the water.There is some tip oscillation when casting and a fair to small bit of “whippiness” which keeps you from making precise casts.
