I am looking for feedback on the the Fenwick HMG and Elite Tech ice rods. I will be using the rod exclusively for panfish and am looking at the ultra light action in the 23" and 25" sizes. I was a big fan of the Frabill titanium spring bobbers until I finally tried a 24" UL HT Ice Blues and 24" UL Schooley's rod this winter and I am starting to prefer a lighter action rod without the need of a spring bobber. I see that Glen's has a good sale on both of the rods currently but want some feedback before placing an order. Is the price difference justified from the HMG up to the Elite Tech rod?
Thank you,
Zubie
