Action
Where most of the initial flex in a rod blank takes place. Fast Action rods will flex mostly in the upper 1/3rd of their length. Moderate Action rods in the upper 1/2 of their length. Slow Action rods flex along their entire length. *See also "Progressive Action."
Action Angle
A relative measurement of rod or blank action. Originated with the Common Cents System.
Adhesive
Bonding agent made from chemically synthesized materials.
Adhesive Failure
Condition that exists when bonding agent pulls loose from a surface.
Adhesive Strength
Strength of the bond between a bonding agent and the surface of the item being bonded.
Back Bouncing Rods
Stout medium action rods designed for use with Back Bouncing rigs consisting of a heavy sinker which holds a swimming plug near the bottom. Rigs are lowered to the bottom, not cast. Back Bouncing rods can be used for other types of fishing as well.
Beveler

Bonding
To join by means of a chemical system.
Butt Cap
Fits on or over the end of most fishing rods. Helps protect the rod blank and handle butt end. Usually made from plastic, rubber, wood or aluminum.
Butt Grip
The grip installed behind the reel seat, on the rear portion of the rod.
Butt Guide
The line guide closest to the reel.
Butt Wrap Alignment Tool
Specialty rod building tool used for laying out and marking center points on a rod blank for any decorative cross wrap.
Calcutta Cane
A type of bamboo cane. Once used to make saltwater surf and boat rods. Normally used in "as-is" form and not cut or split in any way.
Carboloy

Center Pin Reel
Simple, single action reel most often used for float or drift fishing.
Ceramic
Term used somewhat generically to describe any of the various synthetic materials used for guide ring material.
Chevron
A type of cross-wrap where each additional thread is wrapped to the same side rather than on each side of a pattern, as in a "Diamond Wrap."
Choke Guide
