Pan Fishing

[bigdawg74]

going to get into panfishing a bit more, i fish allot with my 5 and 8 year ols children and they like to get the sunfish and perch and the small lake we fish is poluted with them and rockbass as well. i figured i might as well have fun with it so i am going to get a 5ft ultra light and put some 4# line , it is hars to fish for anything else with the kids because they run out of patience fast so i will save the bass fishing for the early mornings when i get out alone.

That sounds like a plan.

If you happen to be asking about set-up Cabelas has 5' UL Shimano Voltaeus rod for $20 Lifetime warranty. Almost bought one but found a St Croix Premier UL for $23.

Good luck. I think that sunfish are terrific fighters on a pound-for-pound (ounce-for-ounce?) basis and are loads of fun on a UL with 4# line.

Pfluegar makes some premade ultralight combos, like the Trion, that are great little set ups for kids.
