Definition of undefined

The term "fishing rod" is a relatively recent invention, appearing in the 16th century. It's a combination of two words: "fish" and "rod." "Rod" comes from the Old English word "rodd," meaning a stick or staff. The word "fishing" predates "fishing rod," stemming from the Old English "fiscian," meaning "to fish." So, "fishing rod" simply means "a stick used for fishing," reflecting the straightforward purpose of the tool.
