Make sure its not to heavy,I fish up to 6hours on most trips,I like to have them weigh no more than 1pound,and my lightest is only 6ounces!its a 6to 10lb,on a 500 spinning reel,you can find small reels like these if you google icefishing reels.,I found one for only 10bucks.I also have a $50 one cause I like to spoil myself,its a Tica,I can fish all day with that rod,its light as a feather stiff as a board.Wall mart has durango rods for 7or eight bucks.in the 6to 12lb range.
