Quick take
A 6-foot medium-light spinning combo with fast action for dock shooting and crappie.
This is a 6-foot, one-piece spinning combo with a medium-light, fast-action IM6 graphite rod, built around dock shooting for crappie. The size 100 reel has four bearings, a Zero Reverse clutch and a 5.1:1 gear ratio, and it can be set up for left or right-hand retrieve. It handles 4 to 10-pound line and 1/16 to 1/4-ounce baits, a light-tackle range suited to panfish.
Best for
- Crappie fishing near cover
- Dock shooting presentations
- Light-tackle panfish
Skip if
- You fish heavy lures or live bait
- You need a 7+ foot rod
Strengths
- Fast action provides sensitivity for light baits
- IM6 graphite is responsive and lightweight
- Size 100 reel is smooth and compact
Trade-offs
