My rods are all light, ultralight, and noodle action. I would like to get a few more of the noodles but they are hard to find.

i have one "noodle" lol i have never heard it called that but i love it for gills... it makes each fish feel like a horse and def no need for a spring bobber... i got it so i could use 2 lb line and set the hook without breaking my knot.. been loving it ever since.

This is a challenge I think we have all taken on....  Add teaching some kids to jig and the gear wears alot faster!

I had 14 at the end of last season but downgraded to 7. My buddy bought half of them 4 Berkley XLE and 3 Berkley LE Combos.
I still have 3 Frabill Ice Hunter Combos, looking to get more of these and 2 South Bend combos. I did count my daughters 2 combos, a Frabill and a south bend.
