I'm not gonna be using it that often, but want one that'll last. I'm going to Gander Mountain today to pick one up, but need some expertise. It's gonna be a starter pole, used maybe a few times duing the season. Suggestions??
Thanks!!

Yeah you'll be happy with an Ugly Stick Ultra Light. I have a 6' Berkley Ultra Light that I absolutely love. Great for inland fishing. On that I just have a Shimano 100 reel. Works just fine for what I need. Casts and reels smooth.

I was just going to post up a thread on this very subject as I'd like to buy something decent that will last me a while. I know how to fish and what lures to use but I don't know the technical side of fishing rods/reels. The fishing I will be doing will almost be 100% inland lakes aiming for all kinds of fresh water fishies......
With that said what are the differences that I should know about when looking to buying a rod...???
I am one that likes to be informed when buying something just because I like to know what it is I'm buying, and also because I would hate to buy two of the same setups if decide to get another. I honestly don't even know if there is that big of a difference in fishing setups so please fill me in on anything I should know......

i think gander mountain has some poles that have a warranty for a few years also
Another vote for the Ugly Stick, Good luck breaking that *****!!!!
Now that I think of it my father has a couple of the ugly sticks with Shakespeare (sp?) reels, is that a good all around setup...??? I used it to catch this little minnow last time I was fishing with him and I liked it, seemed to work well but once again I'm not expert.....
Who needs a pole?!
