Fishing Rods:

  1. Use rods only for fishing, not for other purposes.

  3. Do not use carbon fiber rods during thunderstorms or near electrical lines due to the risk of electric shock.
  4. Use a transport case when carrying rods to prevent damage.
  5. Regularly check rod joints for looseness and ensure line guides are clear before casting.
  6. Dry the rods properly after fishing.

Fishing Lines and Braids:

  1. Never wrap line or braid around body parts to avoid injury.
  2. Cut lines only with appropriate tools, never with teeth.
  3. Keep lines and braids out of children’s reach – they pose a choking or injury hazard.
