Looking for a Light / ultra light rod for some freshwater fishing. My budget is around $20-30 so not looking for anything special just a light action rod that would make for some nice rod bending with peacocks and largemouth. Right now I'm using a medium 6-14lb 2 piece which is perfectly fine I just want to go lighter. New or used as long as it's not broken or in need of repair, want to support the community instead of BPS lol

I'm using a medium 6'6" 6-14lb right now so anything lighter than that it doesn't say an action on it because of how cheap or cuz it's 2 piece....lure capacity and length are not a big deal to me I'm throwing no bigger than 3/8ths and don't need to cast very far. So maybe like 4-8lb line and as for action I like a rod that bends so slow/moderate but when you get that light does action even matter?

I may have one in storage if so it may need a new eye. The rod is all yours free. Will go there and check in the next day or three

I know you are looking for a used one but have your checked the Ugly Stik GX2 ultra light one piece? They are cheap 39.95 only, line rating 2-6, and one piece guides. I have one and I love it, no complains.

Lol when I went out fishing yesterday I found a rod/reel combo laying on the bank, was a light rod perfect for what I need. Already took FF up on his offer so two is enough lol. Thanks for the suggestion though I didn't know they made em that light or I would have looked into it I love ugly stiks.

Thank you, I appreciate it I just broke one of my pair so this will be perfect replacement.
Linesider I will PM you when I get the rod about repairing the guides.
