There are several types of ice fishing rods and gear. One style uses a tip-up method that involves the fish taking the bait, pulling on line and tripping some sort of signaling device light a flag or electrical light. The other is a standard manual ice-fishing rod which is used by dropping a small jig or baited hook down and then cranked up off the bottom. This rod is used like a regular fishing rod.
After the fishing has ended for the day, and it may be some time before you will go fishing again, the rod and equipment should be washed down with fresh water, dried and oiled. The reel needs to be stripped down and oiled before reassembling. Otherwise, the salt water can cause pitting on the metal surfaces. Also, depending on the material used on the rod and eyelets and rings, etc, they too may need a wipe down, after fresh water washing, with a rag and linseed oil, before putting them away.
Good quality fishing equipment can be costly, so taking proper care can ensure that the equipment lasts for a very long time.
Not the rod, but the reel. The reel is fixed at one location on the rod. It winds the fishing line around the spindle of the reel as you "reel it in".
I bought an old movie reel. The reel on the fishing rod broke.
Done by rod and reel it is. Commercial fishing is not a sport.
It's possible but the reel and rod are not made to handle the stresses that monofilament fishing line will put on the gear. The drags on a fly fishing reel are not as robust as a conventional reel.
Generally a fishing rod is composed of the rod, the grip or handle, the reel seat and the line guides.
No, it is a third-class lever. a third class lever has the effort in the middle, like a fishing rod.

You have to go into the lodge and get the fishing rod.
A bait caster is a type of fishing reel. The other two common types of fishing reels are the spinning reel and spincast reels. The baitcaster reel has the reel and the guides of the on the top of the fishing rod (as does a spincaster rod and reel). The baitcaster reel is the most difficult to learn how to use but generally casts farther and has a better drag system for handling larger and more powerful fish.
you use the right hand. While fighting the fish pull up the rod and reel in on the way down
