I prefer med action rods....rated for 1/4 to 5/8oz...extra fast action

Easiest way to tell "what is light tackle fishing" would be .....anything that is not a trolling rod that would require some sort of "touch" skill, etc or able to "detect" that little tick , now that would be LTJing......

Kind of like trolling except you actually catch the fish yourself...
