FISHING POLE
This is a device to make fishing easier by lengthening the distance
that a line and hook may reach. At its simplest it is a thin, straight
tree branch with a line tied to the end. Manufactured versions include
basic flexible version with a line guide, more conventional versions
are made from carbon-fibre or fibreglass and include a reel for the
line. Very modern versions could be made from telescoping, Mega-Damage
materials with autolines, easy brakes, and release catches. Length of
rods vary greatly but are generally between 2-20 feet (60cm-6m).
Cost is for basic Rod, conventional rods are double this and modern
versions are quadruple this. Cases, for modern versions, are +10% of
its cost.
