Best pole I own,March 9, 2009
By hoosierwinnerfrom Greensburg,IN
"I bought this pole in the June of 2007. I have had absolutely no problems with it at all. I have a Bass Pro Tourney Special baitcast reel on it. It works like a champ. I use it mainly for catfishing but also bass fishin. Nothing can beat an Ugly Stik."

Toughest Rod I know of,August 24, 2007
By Blackwaterfrom SE Georgia
"I love Ugly Sticks for tough, down and dirty fishing, such as huge catfish or stripers. Both of these species are famous for going crazy when they get up to the boat, and many rods are broken with the fish usually getting away at this crucial moment. You can almost forget that with an Ugly Stick. They CAN be broken, but it sure does take a LOT of effort to do so. They can cast lures and withstand lines considerably in excess of the rod's ratings. I don't think you can find a better tough duty rod anywhere, and ESPECIALLY a the $30 price level. Money well spent, in my experience. They're not for impressing your buddies with glitz and shine, but they'll git'r done when many, many other rods will disappoint."
