THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT Looking to put some meat on the table after being out of fishing for quite some time. I have two decent reels that I used to use but I need to purchase a new rod as mine are iffy/broken at this point. What would be a good choice for panfish? Im using 1/64-1/32 jigs and 4lb line. Id like something less than 6' if possible and under $100, hopefully way under. Manufacturer, length, action, let me know what you would choose. |

i love my st croix ultralight, i think its right around 100$ maybe 110 but i enjoy it, and if you buy it at gandermountain you can buy a warranty to cover any breaks or damage even if its your fault around 10$ more

Cabela's has some of last years Shimano rods on sale. Plus you can't beat the life time warranty that Shimano has.

Some of the upper end fishermen will scoff, but I love my ultralight uglystick... $30 at walmart.

I use a Berkley Lightning Rod 5'6'' UL paired with a Mitchell spinning reel as my panfish set up. Think I paid like $30 for the rod and $35 or $40 for the reel. One thing that I have grown to like about the rod is it is a two piece so it is somewhat packable.
