ABSTRACT:
A fishing rod and handle are disclosed in which there is no twisting of the rod in the fisherman's hand while handling a large fish; no twisting of the eyes of the rod; longer, smoother, and more accurate casts can be made; and in which friction and line wear are reduced. The fishing rod and handle comprise a rod, the handle having a lower portion and an upwardly extending forward portion, means for securing a reel of fishing line to the lower portion, means for securing the rod to the upper end of the forward portion, and the upwardly extending forward portion having an opening therethrough below the rod. Downwardly extending eyes are secured to the rod and spaced along its length and adjacent its tip, so that the fishing line extends from the reel, through the opening and through the eyes below the rod in a substantially straight line. The opening is an inverted elongate triangle preferably having rounded corners with its altitude extending lengthwise and shaped so that it accommodates fishing lines from various reels without the line rubbing against sides of the opening with the pole in all normal fishing positions, and when the reel is full or not full of line. Other features and details are disclosed below.
