All through this guide, you may see terms like “quick activity” or “medium power.” Most fishermen know these terms, yet some may value a fast boost. The activity, or decrease, of the pole, shows how much twist is in the bar tip. A quick activity pole twists in the top third of the clear; medium activity frequently twists in the top portion of the pole, and moderate activity may join twist all through most of the bar.

Pole control, in some cases called ­backbone, alludes to a stick’s lifting power. The intensity of the bar works related to the line weight of the bar. Angling a grass level with no structure may involve light line and little power in a pole, however throwing close substantial structure, for example, a breakwater or wharf, requires heavier line and more capacity to constrain snared fish far from tangles.

“Higher-end bars can be lighter in weight and progressively touchy, however, they should be indulged, as they can be delicate,” says Okuma’s John Bretza. Consider the bar alternatives beneath to locate your manual turning bar workhorse.
