One object is to provide a grip 10 having an improved nibble conductivity and a fishing rod 1 having the grip 10. A grip 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention is, e.g., a grip 10 for a fishing rod. This grip 10 includes a core layer 15 externally mounted on a rod element 2a, and a fiber-reinforced resin layer 16 that covers the outer surface of the core layer 15. In an embodiment of the present invention, the fiber-reinforced resin layer 16 contacts with an outer surface of the rod element 2a. In an embodiment, the fiber-reinforced resin layer 16 has a smaller damping ratio than the core layer 15.
