I really enjoy sharing
products with you guys that I find from time to time either on the net or by
simply talking with other fishermen. While visiting the Academy Sports in Birmingham a couple of weeks ago I came across what I consider
the perfect fishing pole to start a youngster out fishing.
The B & M Little Jewel 10' Freshwater Ready Rig Panfish Rod is
extremely light and easy for even a 4 year old or up to handle. In fact this
rod could be the training rod for future Tenkara fishermen. My Grandson will be
using the one I bought for him when he comes to visit in October. It comes with
the line, float and sinker already attached to the end of the rod. I did keep
the float, but I replaced the line with 4 lb. test, instead of the 8 lb. test
which came with the rod. A small bluegill will produce quite a bend in this
medium light action rod; at 13.00 this rod is a bargain. I can’t wait for Bryson to give this Little
Jewel a try when he comes to visit.
