I love fishing. Consider myself a proper fisherman living in Florida.
Oh really? I live in SD but loved going deep sea fishing in Florida last year.
San Diego I am Jealous now! What type of rod you use for deep sea fishing?
I use a rod geared toward fighters, like swordfish and shark. I have to strap in to use it!
Sound intense! Apparently fishing is pre-historic and has dated back 40,000 years.
I would get that. Catching one large fish could probably feed a family for some time...
Stone Age
The Stone Age was a broad prehistoric period during which stone was widely used to make implements with an edge, a point, or a percussion surface. The period lasted roughly 3.4 million years and ended between 8700 BCE and 2000 BCE with the advent of metalworking.
Stone Age artifacts include tools used by modern humans and by their predecessor species in the genus "Homo", and possibly by the earlier partly contemporaneous genera "Australopithecus" and "Paranthropus". Bone tools were used during this period as well
, or situations where rod responsiveness is critical. Ultra-Heavy rods are used in deep sea fishing, surf fishing, or for heavy fish by weight. While manufacturers use various designations for a rod's power, there is no fixed standard, hence application of a particular power tag by a manufacturer is somewhat subjective. Any fish can theoretically be caught with any rod, of course, but catching panfish on a heavy rod offers no sport whatsoever, and successfully landing a large fish on an ultralight rod requires supreme rod handling
