Abstract
A pass-through fishing rod comprising a line support and retainers prevents a fishing line from contacting the inner surface of a rod or water adhering to the inner surface and enables the line to be drawn out and rolled up smoothly. The line support pitch of the line support supporting a fishing line is smaller than the retention pitch of the retainers for retaining the line support spaced from the inner surface of the rod.
