What is an UL fishing rod?
UL stands for Ultra Light , and that's exactly what you get in these rods: A short, light rod that casts phenomenally with very light lures, spinners, etc. It's an ultralight fishing rod, which means it's very light, so it's easy to carry and transport. UL fishing rods are usually shorter than regular fishing rods, and they're also often more flexible. Often the rods are no longer than 7 feet, and the casting weight can start as low as 0.5 grams! This makes them the ideal choice for fishing in small waters where casting long lines is not necessary.

The first is called Fast Action or Top Action, and is the least flexible type. This type of UL fishing rod typically has a stiff spine.
