Ob es allerdings eine Übersetzung für diesen Begriff gibt kann ich leider nicht sagen. Es handelt sich hier allerdings nur um die Rute, ohne Leine und Winde.

Stalker

Explanation:
Mooching translates as to loiter or to idle. The rods allow the user to place the bait in a position where it can appear to be of no importance and allow the fish to stalk the prey. The word is shown in many German catalogues ( in English, no translation) It is still rather strange to use this as a description for a rod, normally the technique would be carried out by the user.
