PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a casting rod that enables a super long cast of a fishing tackle and facilitates sensing the fish bite even if in the situation of high wind and wave.SOLUTION: A casting rod of the present invention includes a tip rod 10 with a fishing line guide 8B attached on an outer circumferential surface and formed of fiber-reinforced resin materials. The casting rod is characterized as follows: the tip rod 10 is formed of a loose tapered part 10A from the tip to a predetermined position, and the base end side from the loose tapered part is formed of a steep tapered part 10B with a taper larger than it a reinforcing layer comprising a prepreg sheet 12 organized of reinforcing fibers in the three axial direction is disposed from the transfer point P1 of the loose tapered part and the steep tapered part to the base end side and the end 18e of a fixed leg part 18c of the fishing line guide 8B is positioned and fixed in the position of ±10 mm of the transfer point.COPYRIGHT: (C)2016,JPO&INPIT【課題】仕掛けを超遠投したり、風や波が高い状況であっても魚の当たりが感知し易い投竿を提供する。【解決手段】本発明の投竿は、外周面に釣糸ガイド8Bが取着され、繊維強化樹脂材によって形成される穂先竿杆10を備えている。穂先竿杆10は、先端から所定位置まで緩テーパ部10Aが形成されるとともに、緩テーパ部から基端側はそれよりもテーパが大きい急テーパ部10Bが形成され、緩テーパ部と急テーパ部の変換点P1から基端側に、強化繊維を三軸方向に編成したプリプレグシート12による補強層を配設し、変換点の±10mmの位置に、釣糸ガイド8Bの固定脚部18cの端部18eを位置付けして固定したことを特徴とする。【選択図】 図3
