A spinning rod is a lightweight to medium rod that is anywhere from 6' to 7' long depending on what you are fishing for. They do come in a heavy rod for larger fishing applications. A surf rod is 10 feet to 12 feet long because you need extra casting power for distance. Plus you use a larger weight that sticks in the stand or weeds so the waves do not move your bait back into shore. These rods are heavier and thicker. Hopefully this will answer your question.

A 'match' rod is designed primarliy for fishing with very light (low breaking strain) lines and a float, typically targetting small species of fish in fresh water. Mosty they tend to be quite long: around 12' -14' (4 metres +) is average. The rods are very lightweight in construction, designed to cast very light weights (just a loaded float and baited hook), and allow striking at bites from maybe 30 - 40 yards / metres away.

Conversely, spinning rods tend to be much shorter, mostly no more than 2 yards / metres in length. They are usually more powerfully built, and depending on the rod may be able to cast a wide variety of weights, from fractions of an ounce ( a few grams) to maybe 3 or 4 ounces (100 grams +)

Which fishing rods are for starters?

The easiest for starters would be a spinning reel and rod. Spinning reels take little time to get used to. But also make sure you get a reel and rod that can match what you are fishing for. Example- Lightweight spinner if you are fishing for panfish, or any other small fish. Example- Bigger, heavier spinner and rod if you are fishing for larger fish such as northern pike, bass, etc.

What is the difference between spinning rods and casting rods?

a spinning rod uses a spinning reel - the type that you manually open the bail before casting and normally the reel is used hanging below the rod and they usually have a larger handle than casting reels which you press a button or bar on the reel before casting. I find that spinnig reels are much easier to use.

Will connecting rod caps on a 350 Chevy fit in either direction?

NO! They have to be installed a certain way. If you have it on wrong it will actually be quite obvious. Keep in mind the bearing notch has to prevent the bearing from spinning in the same direction as the body of the connecting rod does. Install the cap so the bearing notch faces the same direction of rotation as the rod body does. The sides of the connecting rod are thrust surfaces as well. Install the cap backwards, and they most likely won't match up either.
