I’ve loved fishing ultralight for over 40 years. I’ve always caught more on this rug than others. Plus as an ad said years ago, more fish come in smaller sizes than larger size. And a small fish caught on ultralight feels like a large fish.

I live in Australia and got an ultralight for chasing trout and perch. Yesterday I hooked a carp 2.5 feet long, after a tremendous fight we brought it in

Brendan brother I always have my ultra light 4’6” or my 5’ rod and real with me every time I go fishing even if I’m fishing for giant catfish or walleye never know what you may catch or what creek pond or stream you may pass on the way to just stop and take a couple cast at and if the big cats are not biting yet fish for some fresh bait is always nice to do as well great video keep up the good work brother

I've fished almost exclusively ultralight the past few years and it's been a blast. I think it was one of your videos that turned me on to the Mimic Minnow lure, that's one of my go-to's now, it catches so many fish!

I use baitcasters for top water baits and large jig fishing but I normally use light rods for the rest of the stuff. Swim baits Ned rigs drop shots. I use an okuma 7ft light. If there is not much brush to hang up on I use it extensively. I’ve brought in just under 7 pounders using this set up with 10 pound straight braid from suffix

@MrBoomer-jl2gw 9 ай бұрын

Spandex lol. I devised a great method to prevent wind knots with the ultralight line. The answer is an oversize reel with braid backing on a triple surgeons knot to the mono line. Also when the line slaps the rod it reduces the distance a lil bit but it helps with line management where feathering is not necessary. Sound counter productive but for us who hate wind knots its a great hack. Happy fishing yall

Love ultralight. I think the most important thing is having a good drag and knowing how to set and use it while using light line.

I’ve got a 6’ light action rod and a 5’6” UL. Took the latter down to a popular spot with a small swim bait on a 1/32 Oz head and the 13” smallie that nailed it 2nd cast fought like an absolute champ it’s great!

If you're on rocks in shallow water be careful. Throw crappie jig as soon as it hits water retrieve lure 4 seconds pause 1 second to let jig fall a little pop rod tip then retrieve again 4 seconds. When pausing 1 second to let jig fall then pop let it fall 1 second then retrieve a fish maybe on after popping rod tip. This is a simple but effective technique I've caught tons of smallies 3 to 4lbs. Pause only 1 second after retrieve then pop rod because shallow water it would get snagged or you breaking rod. If lure gets snagged create a lot of slack in line. This will relieve tension on rig. Pop rod tip on slack line. Flip bait pull out 4 arms length of line from the reel.

Hope that 500 size Pfluger doesn't let you down. I had one that definitely did. I caught a nice Rainbow and I fought it hard , but he would have never got away with a 1000 size reel of anything. I'll give it to you it's brand new. Pflugerville 500 Trion.

Big Fenwick fan, I use a Fenwick eagle 5'6" ultra light moderate spinning rod, it is awesome! BTW I have it spooled up with 10 lb braid/ 4 lb mono yozuri leader on an Okuma Stratus VI 3000 series reel. whippy rod, throws 32nd ounce jig heads... plinking with this setup makes me feel like a sniper, casting right where I want sight fishing creeks.

A 3000 reel on a ultra light rod 😮 whaaattt isn’t that a way way to big of a reel? I have a 5-6 Fenwick eagle ultra light with a 1000 reel it’s perfect. 1000 size reels are commonly use on ultra lights.

@papilloncycles3463 Жыл бұрын

@@carlitosverduzco3643 All reels are a bit different by manufacturer, and spool size and how far the spool sits away from the rod vary as well. I find this Okuma reel fits me nicely, and although it wraps a lot of line, I find the bigger spool helps me avoid wind knots more. Really no downside to it. Use what you find works, and experiment a bit and you might learn something new!

Love those Eurotackle baits. Just be aware that their plastics are not compatible with the fly box you showed. The baits will react with the clear cover. You have to remove the bait before putting it back in the box.

I am looking for an ULTRALIGHT ( 3 oz or so) ultra small Fishing reel. It will be going on my ultra super light weight 30" telescopic carbon fiber. fishing pole 48grs. of total weight. ( Yes, it's durable ) TESTED & it will cast out up to 30 yards easy. ( Or more ) It's for backpacking. I'm putting together an ultralight kit. My current reel weighs 5.8grs. It's feels quite heavy on this little rod. I'd like to try to balance out the weight a LITTLE closer. Plus it will help lighten my pack overall. After all, weight is weight regardless.
