One object is to provide a fishing rod (1) that prevents peeling of UV curable resin layers on outer surfaces of poles having various curvatures. In accordance with one aspect, the fishing rod includes a pole (A, B) having an outer diameter of 25 mm or less, the pole having a base (20) and a UV curable resin layer (30B) stacked thereon with a viscous soft resin layer (30A) intermediating therebetween. The thickness of the soft resin layer (30A) applied onto the pole is 8 to less than 15 µm for the outer diameter of the pole (B) being 10 to 25 mm, and the thickness is 15 to less than 20 µm for the outer diameter of the pole (A) being less than 10 mm.本發明的課題為提供一種釣竿,可防止具有各式各樣的曲率的竿杆的外表面上的紫外線固化型樹脂層的剝離。本發明的解決手段為一種釣竿,至少包含外徑為25mm以下的竿杆,在竿杆的基材20的表面隔著具有黏著性的柔軟樹脂層30A積層有紫外線固化型樹脂層30B而形成。此情形,在外徑為10mm以上25mm以下的竿杆B、B’、B”的情形下,適用於該竿杆B、B’、B”的柔軟樹脂層30A的厚度被設定為8μm以上未滿15μm,在外徑為未滿10mm的竿杆A、A’的情形下,適用於該竿杆A、A’的柔軟樹脂層30A的厚度被設定為15μm以上未滿20μm。20‧‧‧基材30A‧‧‧柔軟樹脂層30B‧‧‧紫外線固化型樹脂層50‧‧‧裝飾層A‧‧‧前頭細竿A’‧‧‧中竿B‧‧‧主竿B’‧‧‧中竿B”‧‧‧前頭細竿C‧‧‧主竿杆C’‧‧‧中竿杆
