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

these rods dont stop, they may have little to no sensitivity, and are heavy, but that's the point, they are almost unbreakable.

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.

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.

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.
Pros
  • Unmatched reliability when topwater fishing...
Cons
  • Reel holder shifts a little bit when setting big fish

Nice Rod
October 14, 2015
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.
Pros
  • Came in heavy cardboard tube for shipping.
Cons
  • None

A lot of things but not "Ugly"
October 9, 2014
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.
Pros
  • Affordable
  • Strong
  • Attractive
  • Portable
Cons
  • Not very sensitive

Is this rod ok to use with a spinning reel?
1 Answer
Hi Ron, This is a conventional rod so a spinning reel would not work on it.
