The global brand Berkley is a pioneer in modern sport fishing. Since its inception in 1937 in Spirit Lake, Iowa, Berkley has developed several revolutionary products – such as the Trilene nylon line, the PowerBait lure for noble fish, the FireLine superline, and in recent years, Gulp jigs.
For regular fishing with a casting rod, you can easily group the lengths like this:
5-6 feet - Children/juniors 6-7 feet - Easy to handle - Perfect for boats. 7-9 feet - Most popular, especially for fishing from shore. 9+ feet - Coastal fishing and river fishing, etc.
Rod length when transported
Refers to how many centimeters long the disassembled rod is. This can be good to know if you’re traveling or packing it into a motorcycle bag.
Fish species
Here, we’ve categorized the products based on which fish you want to hook. We’ve relied on what manufacturers specify, but also on experience of what usually works. The list could almost be endless, and many things work for more species than we’ve listed, so don’t be afraid to experiment.
