A fishing rod includes an elongate shaft defining an interior space. A stop, a cocking rod, a firing rod, and an energizing element are mounted in the interior space. The cocking rod may transfer energy to the energizing element. A trigger attached to the cocking rod is selectively movable through an opening in the stop for releasing the energizing element's energy. A trigger release assembly proximate the trigger includes a ball bushing slidably coupled to the cocking rod and a button extending through the elongate shaft. A rod tip is included for selectively retaining an item of fishing tackle attached to a fishing line. Means are included for anchoring and locking the position of the fishing line. In use, energy is transferred to the energizing element and then selectively released to automatically cast the fishing line by swinging the rod in a traditional casting motion or by pushing a button.
