In a method of fishing utilizing the flippin technique, a loop of line is drawn from between two eyelets, rather than from between the reel and an eyelet. A flippin rod (10a, 10b) has an additional eyelet (27) mounted between the reel (13) and the closest guide (19) of a plurality of conventional eyelet fishing guides (16-19). Fishing utilizing the flippin technique with the rod (10a, 10b) includes grasping the line (21) between the guides (19, 27) and pulling the line into a loop (29). The eyelet (27) prevents the loop (29) from tangling with the reel (13) when the loop is released, and also provides additional line (31) so the bait will achieve a deeper depth. In a telescoping rod (11b), the eyelet (27) is positioned so as not to interfere with retracting the distal portion (34) of the rod (11b) into the proximal portion (33).
