Good Uglystik for the kids
Kids love using this bait caster gx2 on the dock behind the house. Even been stepped on and still didn't break.
Need to try these gx2.
Great rod for the price. Works well season after season. Handle is comfy all day
Amazing quality uglystik for the price
Fished mine for 4 years before upgrading to carbon. Now the neighbors use my old Uglystik on the dock.
Caught a 15 lb bass on it
Toughest rods on earth
these rods dont stop, they may have little to no sensitivity, and are heavy, but that's the point, they are almost unbreakable.
3pc travel gx2 is awesome for overnight trips
use the 5ft 3pc gx2 for my plan to island trips. Packs in backpack for hiking and works great
Ugly Stick
This product worked perfectly. It has a pistol grip that I like and could not find in traditional stores. Thanks for offering the product I needed and enjoy.
Good uglystik bait caster
Great for teaching kids how to use a baitcaster on an uglystik
Sweet and Gorgeous in functional form
Can't break an ugly stik, and this one holds true. Every component is added for functionality and all put together in a good looking package.
Muy buena ca?a
la ca?a es liviana y fuerte pero la punta de la misma es demasiado gruesa, por lo dem?s todo bien
They are the truth I would like them to sponsor me
I'm very impressed with the ugly stick been using them for a while now. Got tired of breaking the tips off my rod when I hook a big fish. It gets real ugly when I show up to fishing tournaments with my buddies with my Ugly Sticks.
Many years of use
i have had many of rods and this ugly stick is by far the best of the lower cost rods. i have used ugly stick for about 10 years.
Good Rod
Good rod!! I have broke 3 rods from ugly stik and they replace it each time.
Definitely worth the buy!
Not very light, but fulfills the purpose. Can't beat the price!
Nice Rod
I bought this as a replacement rod for my son. It was such a nice rod I kept it myself. It is now my primary rod. I will buy another one for him.
A lot of things but not "Ugly"
I would categorize this pole as a good strong rod best suited for applications where sensitivity isn't paramount. I like using it for topwater and cranking. The grip is a little beefy but not terrible. Aesthetics are great and I like the portability of 2 pieces. The 1 piece may be more sensitive. Overall i'm very pleased.
This rod would only work with a conventional reel.
