Ulua's are big but they are great. What reel are you matching yours with? How do you like the combo?

I love my ulua. Absolutely my fav jig stick. I have it paired with a Trini 16n with 65lb smooth samurai braid. It took a bit of practice but I'm comfortable just grippin it and rippin it with the braid now. I use a short price of 40lb mono so I don't have to cut back the braid to change jigs. I've used 90j and 690j on the kayak but the ulua is lighter and cast better for me. The slow action jig sticks cast great but I never cared for the loading and waiting feeling of them. A buddy of mine has a 10' Harnell that feels more like a bull whip. Reel section of the rod is pointed at the fish while the top 6' is still pointed straight behind.l old school. Mike

Nice one. Nothing beats YT on the surface iron. Congrats!!
Disclaimer: There are some who might argue that a BFT on surface iron trumps a YT, not that I would know. Last edited by dmrides; 07-12-2015 at 01:01 PM. Reason: Forgot about those damn tuefin blunas |

I never had the chance to try out the ulua. How would you describe the "action" relative to the Calstar 530? Thanks, FFY
