Line test

This parameter describes the compatibility of the rod with various fishing lines, but its role is not limited to this. Typically, the line test is specified as a range of values, such as 8 – 15 pounds (1 pound — 454 grams). The breaking load of the line used should be within the range specified for the rod. With a lower load, it is likely that the line will break during a sharp movement (for example, during hooking or even when casting), and with a higher load, the rod may break under a load that the line itself would withstand without problems.

Thus, the test on the line characterizes a kind of "power" of the rod, which includes two characteristics: elasticity (the force developed during jerking due to the flexibility of the structure) and the maximum weight load.

Sections

The number of sections provided in the design of the folding rod (see "Design"). Of two rods of the same length, a model with more sections will have a smaller length of each individual section and, accordingly, will be more compact and easier to transport. On the other hand, numerous sections adversely affects the overall strength of the structure. Therefore, when choosing, it is desirable to decide what is more important for you — ease of transportation or high strength.

Working length

The length of the rod in the unfolded (working) position. For different types of fishing, different lengths are considered optimal; see "Rod Type" for more on this. If the type of rod you need has numerous length variations, when choosing, you should take into account the conditions in which you have to fish. On the one hand, longer models usually have a greater casting distance (this is especially true for float fishing); on the other hand, for limited conditions (for example, with dense vegetation on the shore or when fishing from a boat), it may make sense to take a shorter rod.

Folded length

The length of the rod when folded. This parameter primarily affects the convenience of transportation: the shorter the folded rod, the easier it is to carry / transport.
