Those long telescoping poles with a metal eyelet on the tip are called "bream busters" around here. I have a 12 footer that I intend to make into a 9ft tenkara rod. I'll make a grip using cork tape.
I told my father-in-law I was getting into fishing with my daughters and he said he had some fishing rods he could send me. I got the rods today and I don’t know what type of rod they are or how to use them. I’d look up a YouTube video but don’t know what they’re called.
They are 10’ and 12’ long. They don’t have reels, and they only have a hoop on the tip (no hoops along the length of the pole. They have a line tied to the tip of the pole only.
Any clues? Thank you.

They sound like crappie dipping rods, are they multiple pieces or collapsible?
What? Cane poles or Tenkara rods? Do they telescope? And, those should be perfect for kids. I'll wager that's how most of us ol fogies on the stage started out and those are what got us hooked.
