Abstract

See full text

A fishing rod has rod stock, and fixed guides formed on the rod stock. Each guide includes an annular line guide element formed of a material having excellent wear resistance, a tubular element mounted on the rod stock, a frame formed integral with the tubular element for supporting the line guide element, and a pair of sleeves mounted on the rod stock. The sleeves are arranged axially of the rod stock with the tubular element placed in between. Each sleeve defines an outer surface having an arcuate sectional shape gently tapered to approach an outer surface of the rod stock as it extends away from the tubular element.
