Baitcasting rods are a type of fishing rod that is popular among more experienced anglers. These rods are typically used with baitcasting reels, which allow for more precise casting and better control over the line. Baitcasting rods are known for their sensitivity and power, making them ideal for catching larger fish species like bass or pike. They are often made from high-quality materials such as graphite or fiberglass to ensure durability and performance.
