THEME: first words of phrases are synonyms of soundlessness
GOOD ONES:
Cowboys and Indians, e.g. TEAMS [not enemies, maybe]
Land with a rod REEL IN [a rod = about 15 feet, so with that meaning it wouldn't be "land" as much as a "plot"]
BTW:
Crescent component ARC [don't know about this one: crescent = 3D; arc = 2D]
Doughnut's middle HOLE [Yiddish has a great term, bupkis [sic], used to connote "disappointingly nothing."]
RATING: ;D
Three grins = Loved it; Two grins = Enjoyed it; One grin = A bit bland for my taste; One teardrop = Not much fun

A rod is an object with which one fishes. Reel in is a good answer.

Guess you didn't quite understand, and guess it was my fault. I highlighted the clue because I thought it was a "Good One," so I understood the idea of fishing rod. ("Needs no ghost from hell tell us this.") I noted that there was a measurement that might add another facet. But thanks for the comment.
