What does abbreviated mean for fishing rod handles?
In recent years, rod manufacturers have begun to update their rods to take advantage of new technologies in order to benefit anglers. One such innovation is the use of an abbreviated handle. An abbreviated rod handle has cork grips connected by graphite or carbon fibre. Traditional rods used cork exclusively. Modern rods are now abbreviated or are completely cork free. This is mainly an esthetic change to the rod but it does have some advantages for anglers. For one, cork is not as durable as graphite. Overtime it will begin to fall apart as pieces of the cork fall or break off. In addition, graphite and carbon fibre are much more durable and are also lighter than cork. Most rod companies offer several versions of their rods with different types of rod handles, including traditional cork or abbreviated versions.
