When I was younger all I would use is Ugly Stick, don't know why.

What is the best pole for shallow wading and shore fishing?

i would say maybe a 5'6" medium action or light action of choice depending on what you are fishing for and type of water

I was looking at poles around 5'6" and 6'. Fishing just to fish, I belive in throwing back what yo catch unless it's getting fried that night.

What kind of fish & what kind of body of water? Also, speaking for myself, Ugly Stiks rock!!!!!

i agree with the ugly stiks being good poles, i also use a light-medium 5'6" berkely, it has enough action to cast along ways if oyu want but also works well for light stream shore casting, or flipping short distances, i beleive i paid about $35 for it

Fish?? I want it for the looks...

Just casual fishing

I've had a Browning for about 4 years, and it's the best spinner real I've ever fished with. I mostly fish for Trout and Red fish. NOt very many big fish mostly around 14 to 16 if your lucky, but this pole works great. I believe it's a 6' and I only paid 25 for it at Academy

For trout, I use the longest rod I can find. Trout are soft mouthed and don't need a strong hook set. So you don't need a rod with a lot of backbone. And since you're throwing small baits, the extra length helps with casting. With bass or pike, you need a stouter rod to set the hook and to throw the bigger baits.

Low life worm fisherman can use their daughter's Barbie pole. Since they have no couth anyway.

we professional type fisherman, choose not to call it a worm or a nightcrawler, it is officially known as a no. 6 pinky, and retails for $9.95 at finer tackle shops.

You know the professional fishermen also clean the #6 pinky by placing in their mouth and then place them on the fish retrieving device (hook).

well i use a st johns 9'6" fly rod, i enjoy the fly fishing so much, but the best pole i have ever had was a bamboo shoot with a string attached to it, they last forever and i have caught more fish that way than any other

yes but this only works if you use the proper degreasing liquid (beer) first, must dip no. 6 pinky in beer for 12 seconds then swish in mouth for 22.3 seconds then properly apply it to fish retrieving device

A professional fisherman would be better off swallowing that # 6 pinky and then tying on a silver/black Rapala to use as a fish retrieving device.

Eww, swish a nasty ol worm around in your beer?

Mudshark's right, you are a true fisherman.

I`m partial to the Berkely Lightning rods.

 

[Turbo2go]

The Berkley Lightning rod is also my choice for battleing Florida sea trout and red fish.

I dunno what my old man uses on thecharter boat but they are well over 100 bucks for the rod alone .
