This 24-inch ice rod combo is designed with a light ultra fast action blank. The fast action combined with extreme detail to guide placement compliment this sensitive rod blank. Short yet sensitive, this rod design is a favorite for anglers targeting perch, bluegill and crappie because the length enables anglers to fish closer to the hole and their electronics while targeting light biting panfish. The fast action high modulus blank transmits even the lightest pickups yet enable anglers to precision pound or shake the smallest panfish jigs to trigger strikes and eliminate lure spin. Popular ice jigs like Lindy Genz Worms, Fat Boys, Fiskas and Marmooskas or the smallest, panfish sized jigging spoons like Northland's Forage Minnow and Lindy's Frostee Jigging Spoon pair perfectly with this ice rod. Many of the anglers who have field-tested and designed these rods feel that 1 to 3-lb. Test line was the optimum line diameter for the best sensitivity.
