I fish from float tubes and pontoons. I use ultra light rods and 4 pound test most of the time even for fish up to 10 to 15 pounds. I do have a couple of medium weight rods both set up with 30 pound braid if I think I will be into something HUGE. I have found that with the ultra light I can feel the bite better. Another thing in the tube or toon I can keep the fishes head up and they can't take me into snags like they do on the bank. I do have a Abu Garcia 6601-c4 on a Berkley Glow stick medium heavy, with 50 pound braid and 80 pound leader. This is for bank fishing for small sturgeon and large cats. Most of the time I am in my toon or tube. Ron
