Within my small collection of ultra lite rigs my favorite one is a St. Croix 7' Premier model PS 70ULF2 rod and I pair it with a vintage Garcia Mitchell 308 spinning reel. The gear ratio is not the greatest, but I find it a blast to use in open water for small to mid sized fish...mostly bass, perch, panfish and trout under 18".

I have a similar rig set up with their 4 piece "pack version" that breaks down for hiking. I think that one is a 6-1/2 footer and I use a Garcia Mitchell 408 on it, which has a better gear ratio for faster retrieves that I find handy when using it on small brushy streams.

Both rods are graphite.

People who know me have discovered that using old vintage tackle, especially reels and lures, is one of my childhood carry overs! I do use modern stuff too, and I just take turns with different rigs depending on what I am after.

In my opinion the reel is much more important than the rod. The reel of my choice is the Daiwa SS 1300. Have had one since they came out years ago. Can find them on EBAY used if you don't want to pay for a new one.

Thanks...I appreciate the info.

As most of you know there's nothing like ultralight fishing. The fight is amplified and the bend in your pole gets your adrenaline pumping. To make a long story short I have 2 of them. One is a KastKing 100 and the other is a Bass Pro Shop Dough bait combo. Anyway I want to seriously upgrade. I don't want to have to take out a mortgage for it but I want a nice setup. Either individual rod & reel or as a combo. Thank you in advance for your responses.

Nice job Ben. Did you submit your catches and did you get your 4th for the Master Angler pin?

Very well done sir!!! I thought that was a single fish pin. Didnโ€™t realize it was the master angler. Thatโ€™s a great accomplishment. Iโ€™d wear that pin with pride!!!

Tight lines

Thank you J. That pin is actually the single pin. The Master Angler is gold. and that gets delivered later.

What kinda fish was you fish Ohio? Iโ€™ve had a walleye, sheepshead and Steelhead in my life. Caught a couple this year that would have qualified but I didnโ€™t think about it. As a kid I was always trying to get the master angler pin. I think thatโ€™s five fish Ohioโ€™s in a year.


My fish was Channel Catfish, Common Carp, Bullhead and White Crappie. You need 4 species to qualify in Ohio.

Pretty fish, at first thought it was a bluegill, never heard of Warmouth thanks for the picture


Ranger....thanks for your response. I wasn't quite sure what it was at first. Still lots of species left on my bucket list.
