more important reason why i'm looking
for a fiberglass one. The reason is that i can fish more safely during a storm The chances of your rod being struck by lightning are so remote as to be almost non-existant, you stand more chance of drowning. |

Probably you never heard the buzzing of a carbon rod during a storm...and never had the soft electric shock by touching it. |

never had the soft electric shock by touching it. Yes I have but that is caused by static, not quite the same as being struck by lightning. |

But none the less there is a risk which is not mitigated by the materials
used to make the rod. "SEAANGLING" wrote in message ... more important reason why i'm looking for a fiberglass one.

![]() Hello! I'm an italian angler. I'm looking for a 2 pieces fiberglass rod of about 6/7oz casting power. I could not find what i look for, even searching on internet. It seems they don't exist. Can anybody help me, please Good quality fibreglass presents a major problem for rod makers because they very robust and don't shatter at regular intervals like their carbon counterparts. |
