Abstract
A grip of a fishing rod has an outer layer mounted eccentrically on a core member extending from a reel seat support rearwardly toward a butt end, and an intermediate member disposed between the core member and the outer layer. The intermediate member is more elastic than the core member and less elastic than the outer layer. The core member is formed by placing and bonding together a parallel fiber type primary prepreg sheet and a parallel fiber type secondary prepreg sheet one over the other. The secondary prepreg sheet is smaller than the primary prepreg sheet axially of the core member. The primary and secondary prepreg sheets have fiber orientations crossing each other at a bias angle.
