Rhino Fishing Rods

The year was 1999 and I was a younger angler wading in the beautiful St. Johns River in Jacksonville Florida. I was spot fishing for largemouth bass, as it was springtime in Florida, and the big females were busy clearing out a spot to make a home for their fry. I could see the big black tails as they darted left and right knocking free twigs, old leaves, and debris from the semi-sandy bottom of the St. John’s River. I thought I saw a rather large female with an estimated weight of 7 to 8 pounds, so I slowly walked over and got within what I thought was casting distance. I eyeballed the location of the female, looked and took aim and slung my rod and my lure right on top of where I had last seen the giant lunker bass. Right then and there I knew I had one heck of a pole in my hand for freshwater fish as the Rhino delivered my lure directly where I needed it to be. After a 10 minute fight that ensued, I landed what was a beautiful 10 pound large mouth bass. I was in love with that rhino rod right there and then! By the way, I let the largemouth go.

Such are the stories that are so numerous on the North American rivers and are largely accountable to the Zebco Rhino freshwater fishing rods and accompanying reels. A day must not go by where there isn’t a story about a big fish that was landed with the help of the Rhino and some patience and luck. The art of fishing, especially freshwater fishing for larger species, is a fun and exciting hobby that children should be introduced too and as soon as possible. This is where a fine freshwater rod such as the Rhino, can come in so very beneficial. The days on the lake or pond with the fishing rods and the family will be the ones that are treasured for a long time, maybe a lifetime.

The fine line of Zebco rod and reels are extensive and long-lasting members of the fishing industry. Rhino is a great rod that is also a very good learning rod when the need for a lesson in fishing needs to be given to the kids.

Zebco has been a fine provider of Rhino rod and reel combos for those less fortunate and the company is seen as one of the most philanthropic of all the rod manufacturers. Zebco list the indestructible two-piece spinning rod as one of the most popular of the Zebco offerings. Along with the Rhino freshwater rod, Zebco stated that there are many others being planned in the works!

The best aspect of a Rhino combo is that the cost is relatively low and some models can be found in local retailers going for as low as $20.00! That’s a great price for a starter rod and reel that will get the novice fisherman out there and catching fish right away!

If you are in line for your first rod, or one for your kids, the Zebco Rhino Fishing Rods should be considered.

Good fishing.
