ABSTRACT:
An elongated hollow tapered shaft, preferably of fiberglass construction, receives an elongated wire insert fabricated from steel wire for example. The insert includes a head formed at its base end to engage and bind with the interior wall of the base end of the shaft, to limit movement of the insert into the shaft; and this head provides a hook for attaching one end of an elastic line. The insert is somewhat shorter than the shaft and has an attachment loop formed adjacent to the tip end. A fishing line is attached to the attachment loop, extends toward the base end and passes through a ring attached to the free end of the elastic line, with the fishing line then extending toward and beyond the tip end of the shaft. The elastic line withdraws a storage loop of fishing line between the attachment loop and the attachment hook of the insert, which storage loop allows for a variable length of fishing line extending beyond the tip of the fishing rod. An external finger, attached to the tip end of the shaft, coacts with a locking loop formed in the fishing line, to limit withdrawal of line into the shaft and, therefore, to fix the length of line which extends from the end of the fishing rod.
