Rods

Rods are the very first piece of gear that one must equip as they create a loadout. While there are four types of rods, they can be realistically split into two categories: Casting rods and Float rods. Casting rods are used to send a lure a longer distance, then reel it in at a particular rate. Float rods are used with bobbers and bait.

Casting Rods:

 * Spinning Rods
 * Casting Rods

Float Rods:

 * Telescopic Rods
 * Match Rods

Rod Characteristics:
The most important characteristic of any rod is the Lure Weight and Line Weight as these two elements play important roles in what other equipment you may use in conjunction with the rod in question.

Length
The longer the rod length the further out you may cast. Longer rods cast further.

Lure Weight
The ideal weight of the lure. Equipping a lure that is under the stated range will result in shorter casts, while equipping one that is heavier will cause damage to the rod. As such: never equip a lure that is heavier than the rod permits.

Power
--- Uncertain --- Perhaps this also affects cast distance?

Line Weight
The ideal range of line weights that one may utilize with this rod.
