Looking for 2 or 3 weight short rods for my small kids. Took them Blue Gill fishing off a dock and they went crazy. So fun, but the rod was too big and stiff. I had to cast it for them, so anything smaller and lighter would be great. Looking for old reels for them too. If you have anything you want to get rid of post or PM me. Many Thanks!

Look at the Featherlights from Eagle Claw and Okuma Sierra reels

What ever you get, be sure to over line it one or two line sizes.

tfo bug launcher 7' 4/5 wt. medium fast rod that flexes fairly deeply. bluegill are great fun on it, but i have also caught some decent sized channel cats without a problem. very good "fish on" feel. think brand new they are only $89.
