Main question I’m after is do I need to buy a rod that says 1/32 lure so I can cast that size. I’ve tried before on my 6 foot light rod with 10lb braided & it wouldn’t go more then 30 ft so made my cast useless as I wasn’t able to get out to where I knew the fish were

Yeah I figured 6’6 is really what I need & I want to stick to that length. Just worried that it won’t cast the variety of lures I plan on using. Also only other down side was that the 6’6 wasn’t rated ultra light but the others were. I’ve never paid much mind to what the rods say besides when picking out line but I want to this time cause I will be out deep in the woods fishing secluded lakes & rivers & would hate to come up empty handed. I mainly use 1/6 1/4 oz lures for distance but I want to be able to cast a 1/32 1/24 properly 30-35 feet to catch those small trout. Just worried I’ll have to go up to a 7’6 rod just to cast theses lures the way I want them.

Really want a okuma 6’6 ultra light 4Lb that cast 1/32-3/8 lures for my new setup. Saw this 8ft & 7’6 ultra light rod that cast 1/32-3/8 lures. They had the same rod 6’6 but it was a medium light that only cast 1/8-3/8. Wanted to fish for small trout in creeks & small lakes/ponds & enjoy the little fights on the ultra. Don’t want a rod to long due to creek fishing and going after small fish but would still like to cast quite a ways at the pond. Will I really have to get a 8 or 7’6 ft rod just to cast those small 1/32 lures? bought quite a bit of 1/32 lures before I found out my setup won’t cast them correctly or farther then 20ft. Out to buy a new rod real soon & figured I’d ask for opinions
