The Fishing Rod
What mathematical models are used for the placement of guides on Fishing Rod?
Anyone know what mathematical models are used to determine the position of the guides on A Fishing Rod?
Jane,
I don’t know if you are serious or not, but after fishing all of my life, and being an engineer, I would say that in this particular case, there’s only 2 factors that matter.
The first one is – when The Rod is bent as far as it can without breaking, does the line touch the rod? The guides need to provide enough ‘standoff’ to keep the line from rubbing the pole. They could either be really tall or more of them. For something like this, trial and error is probably easier than anything else.
The second factor is – does the line sag when you are trying to Fish? Too few guides can make for a very annoying setup in that the line gets fouled easily,
I’m guessing here, but I’d say that the major factor in placement and how many is economics. A cheap rod has fewer and they are made more cheaply as well. A good rod will have guides with ceramic liner inside them. This isn’t a big deal, other than at the tip of the pole. I would not own one without a ceramic lined tip guide.
