7'6" Light Rod (Inexpensive) Suggestions ?

[Robert11]

Hello,

Do Pond fishing mainly.

Would like to try a longer rod, say 7'6" in a Light, or perhaps ultra-light, version.

Might anyone suggest a "good/decent" cheap one, perhaps in the $ 35 or under class ?

Would want one with the "classic" cork handles and foregrip; not that cut-a-way style they came out with last year.

Thanks,
Bob

bob, I bought a Lew's 8 ft single piece Wally Marshall signature IM6 at Academy for $46.99 in Dec. I really like the rod for bank fishing and jigging docks. Hope this helps

Bass Pro Microlite. Excellent rod. Works well for bobber, tightline & cast and retreive. 7.5' length.

Shakespear graphite from WM is available in 7' and less than $20 I think.

I have several of the Bass Pro microlites in the 7 foot 6 inch size and they are my favorites.

Bass Pro microlites. I have both the 7' and 7'6" models and actually prefer the 7 footer a little better. Seems to have just the right balance in my hand.
