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