I have been kicking around the idea of an UL set up and wanted a few suggestions or ideas.  I already have a ML St. Croix Avid paired with a Shimano stradic so I was thinking of something way different> maybe a 7' UL fast St. Croix Premier and a Pflueger Supreme.  I would be using this set up for inline spinner baits and small jigs exclusively.  It would be used from a kayak in shallow water streams.

 

Thanks again for your thoughts.....

Look at a St Croix Trout series or Panfish series. I like my trout series a lot better than my Premier. The trout series also has a faster action that the Premier. Another great UL rod is a Fenwick River Runner. I have one of the old models, and it is probably my most used rod. Not sure about the newer models though. The Pflueger Supreme is a good reel, as is the Shimano Sahara. Spool up with some light (2-4lb) copolymer or mono or 2-6lb Fireline, and you should be good to go

The old model river runners are fantastic. What are you looking to spend?

Under $250 for the set up.  It's not something I figure I will use a whole lot but I still looking for something of decent quality. Last week Gander Mountain had the Supreme on sale for $69.99 but they are off sale this week (just came back from there).   I may hold off until they are back sale but I will probably make a move sometime before spring.

I would love to look at the Trout series and Panfish but no one around my neck of the woods carries them.  The fenwick river runner is also a good rod but same thing, no one has them in stock.

Santa brought a 6' ulf avid with a Sahara 500 and a 6'6" lf avid with a Sahara 1000. Both set ups balance very well. Can't wait for it to warm up so I can use them.
