what's the difference between silver rod and golden rod?

[HungryForCereal]

just wanna know. are they different or is the golden rod same as the silver one?

I could be wrong, but it seems like fish are more attracted to the gold rod, and usually start biting it even if it isn't initially facing them.

I've heard you have more time to reel in a fish on a golden rod vs. a silver one.

 

[visibleghost]

more time i think? and maybe it attracts fish from farther away

 

[Belle of Pripyat]

I've used both and, to be honest, I haven't noticed any differences.

 

[Sloom Lagoon]

Yeah, as you go 'up' a level in rods, the larger window you have to reel in the fish!

 

[Dorian]

I never knew this!

 

[Rabirin]

Tbh whenever I use the golden rod, I tend to feel like it attracts fish faster.

I definitely think the golden rod attracts fish more. I think the silver still needs to be cast in a certain way. But I never knew there was a wider window for the golden rod. That's good to know
