Quick take

Compact ultralight spinning combo with graphite and fiberglass construction, built tough for small fish.

This Ugly Stik GX2 spinning combo pairs a one-piece, ultra light rod with a size 20 reel, so it suits light line in the 2 to 6 pound range. The rod blends graphite and fiberglass for a sensitive feel, and the reel has four bearings and an instant anti-reverse clutch. A cloth travel bag keeps the set together, which makes it an easy pick for panfish, small bass and anglers starting out.

Skip if
