If you dream of a fishing rod this could represent your need to put in some more effort in order to achieve your goals as it is not as easy as it seems.
A fishing rod can be seen as a tool, but what it is being used for can vary. For example, if you are on the pier and you see a fishing rod, then the rod could represent your desire to go out on the water and fish, but if in the context of the scenario you are at work then the fishing rod will symbolize success and achieving your goals.
