Bigmo,
I have three of them. One 7' ultra light 2 piece and two 6' light, one piece. I use the small Wally Marshall spinning reels with 6# Mr. Crappie line...........and love 'em. Very good sensitivity. All can throw 1/16 oz jigs or Roadrunners very well and all can handle a good fish with no problem.
Good fishin'

Bigmo..
I have one of the microlites..and I love it..I know several others who have them and they love 'em too..ultra sensative....Well worth the money..I was fishing with a buddy who bought a long one the other day and I was using my regular jigging pole..he was feeling bites in the wind that I know I was getting too and not sensing.

I have two, one light action and one ultralight, with Shimano spinning reels. Have caught all kinds of fish on them, including bass and hybrids in the 5-6 pound range. For the money you can't beat them.

Thankyou for your info.
Heres another question i have,
Does the 5 foot ultralight have the same
cork aluminum reel seat handle as the other
Graphite MicroLite rods have?
To me,the reel seat looks a little diffrent.
Also,can you feel the strikes better with
the one piece MicroLite rods?
