Ugly Stick with Shakespeare Reel!!!

I like Berkley rods a lot. Lightning Rods have served me well for the money as a beginner. Move up from there as your skills develop.

i cant believe i just read uglystick is the best rod twice. makes me sick

[nctrouter]

If you are a beginner the best 2 combos would be a 6'6"MH casting rod with a low-profile baitcaster spooled with 12lb line and a 6'6"M spinning rod with a 40 size reel spooled with 8lb line. This will let you fish the widest range of techniques.

6-7 feet is ideal

Ugly Stick makes a great rod, very durable and very cost effective. My favorite is a 7ft model.

I also am a big fan of abu garcia for top water and jig fishing, their higher end rods hold up well.

ugly stick with a spinning reel you can feel about any thing usually 5.5 feet

I likw the rhino rods. I like the unbreakable guarntee that they have. They are fairly sensitve and work really well for not a lot of money.

It all depends. I've used a 5.5 footer, and one time i borrowed a 7.5 footer. Usually, I use a 6.5 foot spinning setup.

i use a typical 6ft ugly stick with shakespeare real and it works great.

you should get a pole that is not to big for you to hold on to or it also does not need to be to small where it is hard to use it correctly. for me i like my Zebco rod and reel combo.
