ABSTRACT:
A connection device for a segmented pole having a line and at least a first pole section (104) and second pole section (106), such as a fishing rod, for interlocking pole pieces during use and during transport including, a first connector section (26) having a first end, a second end and a side (32), a second connector section (50) which is seated on the second piece of the pole and which has a first end, a second end and a side (58), a means for securing the first end of the first section to the second end of the second section, and a means for securing the side of the first connector section (24) to the side of the second section (56). When aligning the rod for use, the side of the first section is twisted to interlock with the side of the second connector section. When the rod pieces are separated for transport and/or storage, the rod tip piece is rotated 180.degree. from its position when aligned and the connector sections are interconnected, for example in same manner as when a tongue is fitted into a groove. Optionally, a bottom clip is located on a non-tip rod piece and the tip end is snapped into place to secure it for transport.
