^Sorry, but what is a 'toc' rod?
A rod specially made for free lining or trotting a bait on a thin line. Never seen a proper translation for 'toc', probably because it's hardly used in the UK.
They call it 'free-lining'
here although I'm not sure it fits with the different type of rod and reel
Normally a natural bait (worm etc) is used, but some rods are specifically designed for casting very light weights so you can cast a nymph by choosing a shotting pattern using very small shots (nº8 to 4 generally)
Example of such a rod:
here (just one example there are hundreds of them..)
Some reels go well with those rods such as the Ritma 72 or Vivarelli. I have the Ritma and love it.
The sort of chub I used to catch with this:
A good rod lets you present a dry fly, or a small nymph in summer, or a juicy lobworm in winter. No float. A bite indicator is needed.
Having done fly, czech nymphing and 'toc' (or whatever name we should call it!), the last by far is (was) my favourite.
