I bought an ultralight spinning rig (Shimano Solstace Rear Drag and 5'6" Fish Eagle II rod, both for 4 lbs test line) and some 1/16 & 1/32 oz jigheads, from Cabela's.

With apologies to all ultra-light fishermen I offer a counter “fair & balanced opinion.
I want to stand by and watch when you hook a 5# HSB on that MM spin rig on 4# test line....
Excellent rig for BG pond only but strongly disagree on that type tackle for multi-species ponds.
OK for catch and keep but you'll kill your fish if CPR.
Great looking BG – Congrats…
