save your money and get a penn prevail. much better rod.
this rod is heavy and brittle
Good surf rod for the price

Nice action, great quality. Well made rod.
Has a decent number of guides for the price paid. I have seen rods for the same price with less guides.
I use it with a Daiwa Tournament SS 2600 reel.
This combo gives me great distance and lifting power fishing from a high pier.

I run a couple 7ft Star Aerial's as my kayak rods, so when it came to getting a surf rod Star was at the top of my list. I was a little leery on the grip as it looked to be smaller in diameter than my other rods. Absolutely Love it! The grip is awesome. Currently paired with a Penn Battle III 8000.
Great product

I've owned one of these rods for at least the past 6 season. I've caught hundreds if not thousands of fish on it to 30+#s. Stars customer service is excellent and they stand by their warranty and their product which is important to me. I have thrown plugs close to 4 oz with it and had no problems

Star Ariel rod

Got this rod with as a gift for father's day from my wife and kids along with a previously review Penn battle 2 5000 reel. The rod is very well made. I chose this rod based on my experience with my star Ariel 11 foot surf rod. This rod loads smoothly and casts very well. Have not thrown anything heavy than 2 ounces with it so far but I feel that it can handle it's rated range.… read more Only gave it a 4 star rating due to the fact I haven't thrown heavier lures with it and only caught a 20 striped Bass with it.
Great entry level rod!

Very good rod if you are just starting out, or need a backup. I got one for myself, and one for my nephew, both paired with Penn Battle reels and the are great, only complaint is they are heavier than you would expect for nine foot sticks.
