Okuma SST ultralight series made for trout review

[flatstick]

Just wanted to review the Okuma rod I recently picked up for Crappie fishing .

Purchased the 6ft 6 inch SST ultralight series made for trout.

The rod is light and well balanced making it easy to fish with .

Action is perfect for me as it has enough bend to fight fish on light line , with plenty of backbone .

Casting is smooth and precise with little effort even with small 1/32 oz jigs.

Okuma nailed this panfish rod if you ask me .

Did not catch many fish on it yet but this rod is turning out to be my favorite.

Good review, glad it worked out for you.

Thanks for the review. Im sold on Okuma rods for panfish. I own multiple of the Cellilo ultra lite rod and would put them up to my falcons. You do have to be careful boat or dock flipping a slab though.

I have read your posts about the rods and when I saw them locally decided to check them out .

Glad I did , thank you !

Was out a couple days ago, ended up getting some nice ones and this rod just performs.

Will take your advice and not flip any slabs .

Glad to hear it. I always recommend the okuma. The only difference I see in it and a higher end is backbone. They make a super light and sensitive rod for sure. Enjoy it!

I bought mine locally at a Field and Stream store to check it out in person.

You may be able to find a better price online .

I have bought all of mine at local shops as well but I’m sure most larger tackle stores will carry them.
