4 of 4 (100%) customers would recommend this product to a friend.
Advantages: Ease of use, Performs well, Quality, Style/Design, Value for money Disadvantages: hook-keeper needs to be on the back of the blank., it sometimes snags the line.
"Earlier I said in a review, that I'd be buying more of these rods.
And I did. I think my total now is "12" of them! Call me crazy. But they work so well. And are a great Value.
They are great Trout, Redfish, Sheepshead, Flounder, Black Drum and more rods for all my inshore charter fishing.
My customers like the action they get from big fish on them.
And I have the confidence they won't snap in half like so many of my other rods have, with inexperienced fisherman.
Big fish + Light tackle = Ugly Stik.
I've been full circle on rod brands. And now I'm back with Ugly Stiks, 13 years later.
The Striper rod just ain't for Stripers."

Advantages: Performs well, Quality, Value for money, the action / bend. Disadvantages: where the "hook keeper" is. it snags the line.
"I bought 5 of these striper rods in 7'6" to be used as my Speckled Trout & Redfish rods for charters. Because they break all my other rods I have tried with the public.
The action is lighty but strong and for the price they work great for all the inshore species I chase.
So much that I have $250 dollar custom rods that now sit, and when I head out solo, I grab the Striper Ugly Stik.
Best bang for the buck, when it comes to a 7'6" casting rod, with a real nice parabolic type action .
I plan on ending up with 5 more!!"
