Spinning Rods Buying Guide: Important Things To Know

What Is A Spinning Rod Good For?

A spinning rod is great for beginners and experienced anglers alike because it’s versatile and easy to use. It’s ideal for casting lightweight lures and baits over long distances, especially in freshwater settings like lakes, rivers, and streams.

Whether you’re targeting bass, trout, panfish, or even saltwater species, a spinning rod gives you good control and smooth casting. It’s perfect for fishing in open water or around structures like rocks and docks.

What Size Rod Is Best For Spinning?

The best size spinning rod depends on what kind of fishing you're doing. Here’s a quick guide:

  • 6’ to 6’6”: Great for beginners and all-around freshwater use.
  • 7’ to 7’6”: Better for longer casts and fighting slightly larger fish.
  • 8’ and up: Ideal for surf fishing or casting heavy lures long distances.

For general freshwater fishing, a 6’6” to 7’ medium power spinning rod is a solid choice. It offers a good balance between control and casting distance.

What Is The Best Fishing Rod For Beginners?

For beginners, a medium power spinning rod between 6 to 7 feet is usually the best option. Spinning rods are easy to learn with, tangle less often, and are very forgiving.

Pair it with a spinning reel, and you're set for a wide variety of fishing situations—whether you're at the lake, on a riverbank, or fishing off a dock.

Brands like Ugly Stik, Shakespeare, and Lew's offer beginner-friendly rod combos that are affordable and durable.

What Are Different Types of Spinning Rods?

Spinning rods come in several different types, each designed for a specific style of fishing, target species, or environment.

  • Ultralight Rods: Great for small fish like trout and panfish. Very sensitive and ideal for light lures.
  • Light/Medium Rods: Versatile for bass, walleye, and general freshwater fishing. Good balance of power and sensitivity.
  • Medium-Heavy/Heavy Rods: Built for larger fish and heavier cover. Ideal for catfish, pike, or inshore saltwater.
  • Saltwater Rods: Corrosion-resistant and strong. Designed for species like redfish, snook, and sea trout.
  • Surf Rods: Long rods (9–14 ft) made for casting far from the beach or jetties. Perfect for big saltwater fish.
  • Travel/Telescopic Rods: Portable and easy to store. Great for travel or on-the-go fishing.
  • Technique-Specific Rods: Specialized for certain methods like drop-shotting, swimbaits, or live bait fishing.

Each type has its own strengths depending on the technique and species you're targeting.

What Is The Difference Between A Casting Rod And A Spinning Rod?

The main difference lies in how the reel and guides are positioned:

  • Spinning Rods have larger guides and the reel hangs underneath the rod. They’re great for light lines and lures, and easier for beginners to cast.
  • Casting Rods have smaller guides on top of the rod and use a bait-casting reel. They offer more power and precision, especially for heavier lures, but require more skill to avoid tangles (backlashes).

In short, spinning rods are simpler and better for general use, while casting rods give you more control once you’ve got the hang of it.

What Are Good Spinning Rod Brands?

  • Shimano – Known for high-performance rods like the Shimano Expride, Stella, and Terez series. Great sensitivity and balance.
  • Daiwa – Offers top-tier rods like the Daiwa Steez, Tatula, and Saltiga series, known for lightweight yet powerful blanks.
  • G. Loomis – Famous for their NRX+, IMX-Pro, and E6X series, offering exceptional sensitivity and craftsmanship.
  • St. Croix – High-end models like the Legend Elite, Legend Xtreme, and Avid Series are known for premium materials and performance.
  • Megabass – Japanese brand with high-end rods like the Orochi XX and Destroyer series, known for unique tapers and sensitivity.
  • Edge Rods (Gary Loomis) – Designed by the founder of G. Loomis, these rods (e.g., Delta, First Strike) are lightweight and powerful.
