Using the Shorts sticks
Went fishing this morning to lake McIntosh.
The water is still dingy , but showing signs of clearing.
I picked a couple of short combos to take with me , a 5 St Croix Avid ULF paired with a Shimano Soare 500 BBspg and a 5 St Croix Premier ULM paired with a Shimano Soare 500 XRspg . Both were spooled with Daiwa J braid X8 and 4# Flouroclear leaders .
My first fish was a small shellcracker, the only one I caught today .
I caught twenty one fish total , with eleven of those being small to medium size crappie and a few small bluegills.
A couple of bass rounded out the catch , with one of those big enough to give the little five foot Premier a fun battle .
Five foot ultralights used to be my go to rods , and I still enjoy fishing with them .

Good luck when you go with the real little sticks. Those are some nice ones in the pics. I haven’t gotten a big largemouth in a while but I got 5 or 6 little ones yesterday.
