It has already been defined that for fly fishing ultralight means 3-weight or less, but for UL spin-fishing it does seem less well defined.
Or...you can be like me and simply build all your spinning rods on flyrod blanks.
I suppose I have just grown to love their taper concepts and how they fish on any line. My current fav is an original Avid 9' 3wt build as a spinning. Usually 1/8 or 2/10 braid with lighter leaders/tippet. I prefer heavier mainlines for slip float use and they tangle much less for me relative mono.
May build a shorty someday in a 2wt from someone. With the advent of lighter, smaller guides and some impressive reel designs it's mighty tempting. Low diameter superlines are real game changers when it comes to durability and handling.
