best for saltwater,January 31, 2009
By Taddeifrom Yokohama, Japan
"I found some of reviews say ugly stiks are so heavy and not sensitive. But I don't think so. I own M/MH/H ugly stik lite casting rods. All work so good, are very sensitive like graphite rods. I can feel even a small rockfish bites by them. Besides, these rods are very frexible, easy to hook up fishes as glassfiber rods. When it comes to inshore fishing, I choose these versatile rods. Best buy for the prices!"

Ugly stick,May 19, 2008
By wp4noles28from Bradenton, Fl
"This is an extremely good rod. My friend has one with a shimano spheros on it. Let me just say that it is the best rod that i have ever used. it is very sensitive and yet can set the hook with alot of power. I used it and brought in a 35 inch redfish with no trouble at all. My friend also closed the car door on the tip on accident but the tip or the rod did not break. overall i would highly recommend this rod."

it can ta a likkin,March 4, 2008
By randy63
"I have ultralites, medium spinners, and inshore rods. They are a little heavier than the expensive models, but I can take them anywhere, anytime and can rely on them not breaking. My ultralites got closed in a door (they did not break) back in 1992 and I still have them, they still have all the original guides, and I have worn out three different reels on each of them. I bought a medium one for my son, and it is tough as nails. I always carry one with me."

Best of the Best,October 19, 2007
By king fisher
"The first time I seen an ugly stik I said to myself,I need this rod! so i bought one then 2 then 3 and well... you get the picture I fish for catfish,muskies,and carp and you all know how big these fish can get I can reel in 15lb + fish knowing that this rod will never break or at least they haven't yet just to let you know how powerful these rods are I cought a 3ft muskie on a 5'6 lite action ugly stick by accident one day while fishing for crappies and reeled him right in ...not easily but I did get him in...and my drag was not set for muskie action that day that would have cracked any other lite rod easily"

Outstanding bang for the buck,August 30, 2007
By Spikefrom Savannah, Georgia
"I use all Ugly Sticks for all my saltwater fishing. Spinning or baitcasting alike. Even though I purchased these rods for flounder, reds, trout and similiar species, sharks up to five feet have taken my bait and gave it a real run for the money. I have yet to have a problem with this product or any Ugly Stick I purchased. This is truly a case where you don't have to spend more to get an excellent product. I would recommend these rods to anyone that wants performance and isn't into having the big name rods to impress people."

Excellent rod,can take a beating,November 9, 2006
By charleyrocknrollfrom Southwest Louisiana Gulf Coast
"I fish in saltwater marshes for redfish, flounder, and speckled trout and I'm in a small, flat bottomed boat, with no rod holders, so my rods are piled on top of each other, banged and bounced, to and from the fishing spots, plus I bring several rods and reels with me. You'd be amazed at the size of some of the fish I have landed with these "bass tackle" size rods and I have never broken one. I have UGLY STIKS in all sizes and I have complete faith in them. "Beat 'em with a STIK", I say."
