What makes this a practice rod? How do you use it?

I couldn't tell from the picture, Ron. Did you put some guides on the rod? That could make a neat little mini rod.

That looks very nice. To make it really work though, you might have to take the cover off the aquarium.

This rod comes with four guides for the rope to go through . I just untied the knot on the rope and tie wrapped a 2wt reel on it . After a few casts I was able to get 15 of my steps out and landing pretty soft . I'm fishing it for sure !
I couldn't get the Plecostomus to bite . lol
