  • Well worth the money
Diawa reels bigger than 3000 hard to fit in reel seat but can be done. Great rod overall.

  • One of the best rods in the price range, but a few drawbacks.
This rod is one of the best rods under $50. It is also virtually indestructible. However, that comes at a price. The rod is pretty strong, and especially light. However it lacks sensitivity, and runs a bit heavy. My ultralight Ugly Stik Elite is more like a light, and my medium heavy is almost a heavy. I returned the ultralight ugly stik, because sensitivity is key. The medium heavy ones I kept and am very happy with, because they are mostly for bottom fishing and for using some heavy lures. That is why I say the Ugly Stik Elite should only be bought in Medium or Medium Heavy varieties, for bigger fish, where it is simply the best rod for the price range. Medium and Medium Heavy Ugly Stik elites can catch carp, catfish, big bass, pike, and musky. However, this leaves a gap. The Ugly Stiks are too stiff and heavy for fish such as panfish, trout, crappie, and bass, and will offer you a poor experience. For those kinds of fish, nothing beats a Berkley Lightning Rod Spinning ($35). Extremely light, sensitive, and surprisingly durable. It runs a tad light so it's geared towards smaller fish. Overall, this is the best rod in the price range for bigger fish. The lighter versions of the Ugly Stik Elite aren't that good. However, this rod excels when durability is key. For a beater rod, or a rod going to be subject to bad conditions, nothing beats this. ... show more

  • Outstanding Rod!!!
I own several of the 2 piece 7’ medium. And several other ugly stiks. Many of them are over 20 years old. And never once have I had a problem with any of them. But for the money you can’t beat this rod. It’s as good if not better than the $200 rods on the market.

  • Beautiful and high performance rod
My girlfriend and I started getting into fishing, and, when she bought a rod, I had to buy a rod too... also because she consistently out-fishes me, regardless of the rod. I'm still fishing just as badly, haha, but I look good doing it now. This rod is beautiful and reacts well. Comfort is a plus and its strength is. I hope to keep it as my trusty rod till I can pass it on to my kid someday, hopefully if I have one. I'll be honest, I don't know much about rods and fishing, but, what little I do, this is far more rod than most fishermen will ever aptly put to use. I'm happy with the quality and performance I've seen so far. ... show more

  • Great rod
I bought the medium-heavy 7ft. Very nice rod. Composite materials mean it's very durable and very sensitive. I can finesse the line nicely, use many different presentations of bait. Can cast right on a dime to get into those nice spots between trees, cover, lily pads, etc. Sensitivity is amazing, can feel every little snag against weeds and rocks and eventually you get the feel for it so you just learn to keep reeling gently and almost never snag grass. Have used this for catching bullhead and trout in a rod holder just watching the tip for twitches, shows every little bite. You still get some nice fights, but the rod always lets you bring it in. Only had it since the start of the season and caught a few trout, a dozen or so bullhead, a few largemouth (including my personal best at 20in). Highly recommend. ... show more

  • Amazing Rod
Wow a amazing Rod I bought 2. 7ft Medium Heavy. I do alot of Bass & Striper fishing have pulled in 3to5 lbs blk bass with No Problem. I have also caught 10lbs Striper and a lot that range from 1 to 5 lbs and the This Rods handle them with No problem. I use this stick with a Piscifun 4000 with 25 lbs jig jerking 8 strand Braided line. I also lube my top eye every fishing trip. Because braid line can kill any top eye on any rod. Just my 2 cents. Go fishing!! Oh buy the way I just purchased my third but it's a 7.6 ft. Go have fun and oil that tip. ... show more

  • Fantastic rod!
Rod arrived sooner than expected! It came in a Tube that would have made it across the Atlantic Ocean! NOT A CHANCE of being damaged in anyway 👍👍👍👍👍

  • Ugly Stik Spinning Rod
I ordered the Ugly Stik Elite Spinning Rod but received the casting rod instead. Knowing the quality of the rod and having four others I decided to keep it and not go through the hassle of returning it, unfortunately I still needed to buy a replacement Spinning Rod. Not wanting to try my luck again I reluctantly went to a local shop and purchased an Ugly Stik there unfortunately it was not the elite with the cork handle that I wanted but the GX2. Make sure they send you the correct rod. ... show more
