Some ultra-light rods are capable of casting lures as light as 1 ⁄ 64 of an ounce (0.44 grams) – typically small spinners, wet flies, crappie jigs, tubes, or bait such as trout worms.

3. Fishing rod tapers - Wikipedia

   Since only the very tip of the rod bends, when a fish strikes the angler has ample rod shaft and backbone to set the hook correctly.

7. Trolling (fishing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trolling_(fishing)

   For light and medium freshwater gamefishing, any reasonably robust casting or spinning rod can be used as a trolling rod. Effective trolling rods should be fairly stiff with a relatively fast action, since "whippy" slow action rods are frustrating to troll with. [citation needed]
