Ugly Stik Catfish Special Spinning Fishing Rod

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Not much to say. Everyone knows ugly stiks are the best. Rod is really clean and aesthetically pleasing, Easy to transport, and built to withstand massive fish. Extremely good rod for the price point.

As an avid catfish angler, I recently invested in the Ugly Stik Catfish Spinning Fishing Rod from Amazon, and I couldn't be more impressed with its performance. This rod is an absolute game-changer for anyone targeting catfish in freshwater rivers and lakes.First off, the build quality is outstanding. The rod feels incredibly durable and well-made, with the signature Ugly Stik toughness that can handle even the hardest-fighting catfish without breaking a sweat. Whether I'm casting heavy baits or battling monster fish, this rod stands up to the challenge every time.The sensitivity of the rod is also worth mentioning. Despite its rugged construction, it has a surprising amount of sensitivity, allowing me to feel even the slightest nibble from a hungry catfish. This has greatly improved my hook-up ratio and overall success on the water.

Made by brand name worth every dime and in 3 different actions

Used this rod to put my Peen reel on. Seems to work good has the right stiffness and length for catfishing.

It's an ugly stick

Had to come back a couple years later to write this. I bought this for catfish, but just reeled in a 30lb Black Drum with this rod. This thing is incredibly strong!!!!

Sensitive tip. Stout enough to handle the big catfish. Like it

You can't go wrong with an Ugly Stick. At least not yet. I have had a few of these and the only reason I need to replace them is my son and grandsons run off with them. They won't stand up to a truck door slam though. But I have had 35 lb. cats on them with 20 lb line and brought them in. I have had these rods doubled over on a troll snagged up good and wishing I had line that would break but didn't and neither did the rod. It dam near held the boat in fast current snagged up and all at the dam! For heavy cats and other big fish these are the ticket. I don't do much salt water but I wouldn't be surprised that in the right hands you could handle a Tuna or such with this rod,
