Opinions on rods in EG

First Step
So I've noticed the poll for adding rods in the server's hub. If you haven't already noticed, take a look at the list of polls in the hub, it should be the second one from the top. I also happened to notice that the great majority of players want rods to be added. I don't know if others who have voted have considered this but did anybody think about rod spamming? Bow spamming is already bad enough (Especially with the Vip Punch 1 Bow) but atleast with bows it somewhat requires aim and there is a short delay on it (pulling the bow back). With fishing rods being added into kits, players would be able to rod spam at a somewhat decent range with less delay than bow spamming and with little to no aim requires as you literally just have to spam a button and if you know it'll miss just cast it again... I don't see why so much people would want these added to kits considering it just creates many more problems. If you really aren't good without a rod and you are used to a rod, you could easily craft some using some string and sticks from materials gatherable around the map.

You have bows so it shouldn't be a problem? If someone rod spams can't you just shoot them to death?

You can, when player 2 (with the rodspam) doesn't move. Now imagine this situation, player 1 got player 2 down to low health, and suddenly player 2 starts running. P1 chasing p2 trying to not get lost of him (chances of actually hitting the targets can be low, when p1 isn't good at aiming, or the map doesn't allow it... If you understand what I mean), but then p2 rodspams p1, and runs away again.
I doubt many players wouldn't go to the forums to complain how terrible it is having rods in their kits.

I'd either make prices for rods in the shop very high, or not add them at all. But don't put them into the kits...
