Rod test for bream #2


I finally had a chance to test my bamboo rod on breams.

I know a 4 weight graphite rod can handle breams including some large ones. That is a story for graphite.

I have been wonderling if 4 weight bamboo is as strong as graphite when it comes down to landing breams which fight much harder than trout of the same size do.


I hooked up a few small to medium size breams today, and the rod was handling the fish well. It feels to me a bamboo rod is much stronger than I thought.

先週末に続いて、バンブーロッドでクロダイ釣りです。釣る前は#4の細いティップが心配でしたが、近所で釣れる平均サイズの魚なら#4でも平気そうです。竹竿は思ったより丈夫みたいです。
