    Anyone using them, they’re the ones with the flat fluorescent yellow tip. This is going to be used for crappie and panfish.

    I have the ultra light one for crappies and I really like it. I have even handled the occasional pike on it. The only thing that I have heard bad about them is that the tips seem to break off kind of easily. I personally have not had this problem but still something to consider.

    They’re my go-to panfish rods. I’m careful with them and have never broken one. The breakage issues were more of a problem prior to their redesign in 2015 when the size of the guides were increased. I’m partial to the 27″ Light for panfish, especially if small spoons are a significant part of your arsenal.

    Thanks, I bought the super ultralight for use with flys which weigh almost nothing. I’m looking for the rod tip to arch just enough where I can see it unload for those upward nibbling bait robbing, better off in my frying pan than in the lake panfish.

    Ive got a couple of them and they are my go to rods. They are great for those rising bites. My sul held up phenomenal with a pike too!
