A fishing rod, known as \“machli pakadne ki chhadi\“ in Hindi, is a long, flexible tool used for catching fish. In India, local products like the traditional bamboo fishing rod are popular in rural areas. These rods are handcrafted from natural bamboo, making them eco-friendly and affordable. They are commonly used in rivers, lakes, and coastal regions for subsistence fishing.
Modern Indian fishing rods may include fiberglass or carbon fiber models, but traditional ones remain in demand due to their durability and cultural significance. These rods often feature simple designs without reels, relying on manual casting and retrieval techniques passed down through generations. |
