PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To permit smooth engagement even if an accretion such as salt adheres to an engagement portion between a handle portion and a rod body portion.SOLUTION: The fishing rod includes a structure detachably connecting a rod body part 10 and the handle portion 20. A cylindrical member 14 having an opened rear end is fixed to the outside periphery of the rear end of the rod 12, an engagement portion 14K is provided at the rear end of the cylindrical member, the rear end of the rod is located forward from the rear end of the cylindrical member by an appropriate dimension, and the front end of the handle portion has an engagement hole 22H and is opened. The fishing rod, therefor, can bind the rod body portion so as to prevent the rod body portion from turning around the axis of the rod by inserting and receiving the cylindrical member into the opening and engaging the rod body portion with the engagement portion of the rear end of the cylindrical member by inserting the rod body portion into the interior. Further, the fishing rod is provided with a handle side engagement portion 26K released from engagement by drawing out the rod boy portion, and structured so as to bind the rod body portion so as to prevent the rod body portion from getting out of the handle portion by a nut member NT threadedly engaging with the thread portion NB of the handle portion.COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT【課題】ハンドル部と竿本体部との嵌合部に塩等の付着物が付いても、円滑な係合を可能にさせる。【解決手段】竿本体部10とハンドル部20とを着脱可能に接続する構造を有する釣竿であって、竿杆12の後端部外周には、後端が開口になっている筒状部材14が固定されており、該筒状部材の後端には係合部14Kを設けており、竿杆の後端は前記筒状部材の後端から適宜寸法前方に位置しており、ハンドル部前端部は嵌合孔22Hを有して開口しており、ここに筒状部材を挿入させて受け入れると共に、その内部には、竿本体部を挿入することで、筒状部材の後端の係合部と係合して、竿本体部が竿杆の中心軸線の周りに回動しないように拘束でき、また竿本体部を引き出せば係合が外れるハンドル側係合部26Kを設けており、ハンドル部のネジ部NBと螺合するナット部材NTによって、竿本体部がハンドル部から抜け出ないように拘束するよう構成する。【選択図】図2
