Are some fishing rods made to break down into two pieces?  Why?

Remove the "but cap" and trim back the handle to expose the blank and cut it with a hack saw or fine tooth saw so as not to crack the blank. You can go to WWW.mudhole.com they sell fishing rod blanks and stuff to make and build rod

More than one foot.\n\nIt is basically a triangle - the fishing pole is one side, the line a second, and the distance from the boy to his boat the third side.  You can't calculate the distance based on this, the length of the rod won't change, and shortening the line will shorten the distance by more (unless he is holding it flat, which is unlikely).

Braided fishing line would work...get as heavy as you can.

If you're just getting back in then you may have missed the "tackle revolution " so to speak. Years ago top quality tackle was expensive because of the materials and manufacturing processes. Trust me, nowadays these processes are much cheaper and this reflects in the market. You can get great performance rods at a snip of the prices they used to be. A lot of tackle shops do some great rod/reel combos, giving a discount and usually chucking in a few bits & bobs as well. So, don't go chucking your money away just yet, have a look around and you might be impressed, then you'll have a bit of extra cash to buy other items.

There are too many ways to list, but in addition to the other 2 responses above mine, you can put them on a leadhead jig, and jig them on the bottom. Try tying a palomer knot, and on the tag end tye on another hook, and rig 2 flukes this way.  You can also get a threeway swivel, and rig two at the same time, make one of the lines atleast 6 inches longer than the other though..  Start off with two different colors, and which ever one catches more is the one you use on both hooks.  That rig kills the smallies in my area.   I prefer using the threeway swivel.  I have also caught largemouth using this rig.  And you can catch bass, as well as trout using the jig method.  Here's a few articles about fluke fishing. Although the first one talks about parasites.  Have fun, and tight lines.

if you statically charge some sort of object, a glass rod works very well, by rubbing it on material in one direction only then hold it next to a stream of water the water should be repelled and bend away from it.

ADVANTAGES: This particular rig has been working for hundreds of years. You almost can't go wrong. Simple and deadly. A "sinker-slide", a "Pyramid" sinker, and a "Circle" hook can catch a variety of fish including, Sheep-head, Redfish, Trout, Drum, Catfish, Croakers, Whiting, ETC.\n\nDISADVANTAGES: There really aren't many. It depends on where, and WHAT you are fishing for.\n\n Then again, If you mean this Q as an analogy, many MEN/WOMAN get "caught" "hook line & sinker", so it must work VERY well!!! lol

It is a little hard to explain. It can be a difficult task. You basically have to skin them. What we normally do is to take a small axe and chop down the back bone and cut the top fins off then take a sharp knife from that point down the sides right under the scales skinning it around the sides. I hope that this helps you, I know it is a little vague. Usually the bigger the fish the easier it is. Happy eating, Gar Fish is a very tasty fish when cooked right.

Your elastic should be fixed to a plastic pole connector, which is just a sliding piece of plastic that traps your line in a small hook. When you make your rigs, make them at home as it saves a load of messing about on the bank, just be sure to keep then tidy on rig winders and leave a few feet of extra line on the rig, so you have more to play with when finding your exact depth. Fish just on the bottom to start with, and then if you cant catch, bring it a little off bottom, you will eventually find em, tight lines

The length of rod has nothing to do with your height, and everything to do with the type of fishing you want, plan, or like to do.  It is a great activity - I don't know if I have ever had a bad day fishing. Enjoy it!

I believe if you push them in your reel will get faster.if you push them in i would do it by pshing one on onside and then the one directly acroos ,like bolting on a car tire.

To pick up the parts that fall off.

Go for a wooden one that can be extended. Usually, the back third can be replaced by an extention that you use when using the rest. Avoid gimmick cues like aluminium and carbon fibre. Leave those to the fishermen!

Check e-Bay, they do have many fishing items. I sold a fly rod on there myself before.
