Well, I like he Feather Lite from Eagle Claw in a 5' range. paired up with a small underspin (Eagle Claw also) or spinning reel (Shimano). They work great for Bream and Crappie and I was able to get 3 rods and 3 reels for about $50 on Ebay. All brand new and shipped right to the house. I love the ultralight stuff and it makes any fish you hook a lot of fun to get in the boat...
