Not used this Forum before so Im not entirely sure how it works, I did a-lot of fishing with my dad when i was younger and trying to get back into it, Ive found i have 2, John wilson Avon quiver travel rods, The TC is 1 1/4 LB. the rod case also states "reel lines 3-6LB"
my questions are the following
1) Do the different Quiver tips change the TC?
2) How do i match a reel to a rod ( what size reel to buy)?
3) What is the specific use of this rod, can i ledger and also float fish?
4) What line should I use and do i need a leader or not?, How do i determine what leader to use?
5) The rod is 11Ft this feels quite long is this still suitable for fishing small lakes and ponds?
6) Ive looked online and seen that this test curve looks quite low compared to carp rods, does this mean i will struggle to fight bigger fish?
Any Answers and guidance would be great help thank you for taking time to read
