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

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