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

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.
