  1. samubus,

    Sturdy rods for river fishing – I own the BWS 110066 and 110070 and love both of them. I use them for Ohio River catfishing and occasional saltwater vacation fishing.

  2. albd,

    Great value – This is the sixth big water Ugly Stik I have purchased. I have purchased them for my grandchildren and son and myself. They are well constucted and hold up to rough usage and minimal care.

  3. GOVNA,

    Great Value – I bought this rod to go saltwater fishing from boats. I paired it with a Shimano tr 100 g reel.The rod is built to last and the sensitivity is unmatched.

  4. Cloe,

    Lands the big ones! – Caught my 1st sturgeon on my own with an ’11 uglystikall my rods are uglystiks! Nothing else compares! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.].

  5. JBarone19,

    Unbreakable & Unstoppable – I have owned multiple Ugly Stiks, this rod is a staple in the industry. I’ve learned on a Ugly Stik and still have the same rod over 15 years later.

  7. CarbJim

    Rigged it with Shimano Sahara 4000FB. Made catches more exciting off NC piers. Plenty sensitive rod. Strong. Enuff reel to pull in average fish that I’m likely to get on. Very satisfied.

  8. Tazman

    For the $70 price, these are the perfect rod for deep water halibut fishing with electric reels. ✔ Yes, I recommend this product.

  9. Newton C

    I bought the 6ft medium action rod for jigging for kokanee and mackinaw (lake Trout) in deep water 75-115 ft it is by far the best jigging rod I have ever used. you feel everything that is.

    Haven’t had the chance to fish with these yet, but I’m stoked! Recommended by my fishing guide and we used them on our striper fishing trip. Can’t wait to get back to Lake Cumberland and use.

  18. ACrackerJack

    I bought the 12′ model. I have used Ugly Sticks for years and they stand up to the for many years of enjoyment. I’ve handled allot of rods in this length and this one is one of the lightest.

  19. Drew P Caulk

    Best rod ever. Last rod you could need for years. It is thick enough to stand up to saltwater. Yet nimble enough to cast lures and fish for bass, muskie, etc.

  25. Fishfun

    We like the rod we purchased, but it arrived in a broken flimsy package. We are a little nervous about it being bent/stepped on/broken during shipping.

  42. M1234567

    I bought the extra heavy action on the 12 ft surf rod after trying just the heavy action. Don’t buy it, it has the smaller guide rods and it just doesn’t work for a spinning reel.

  43. Jasonelk9111

    Very nice! Im just very disappointed in how many scratches is on the rod and a huge indent in the foam on the handle. I got this rod for sturgeon fishing.

  44. TurboAngler

    I bought this rod for contour trolling in fresh and salt water and it is a great rod for the price. Solid construction and great sensitivity for small lures bumping on the bottom.

  45. Steven Smith

    The rod performed well fishing in the surf in Rutherford Beach Louisiana. I was able to get more distance with my 15ft ugly stik!! ✔ Yes, I recommend this product.

  46. Bob 09i7

    Only used a few times so far but have caught a couple 4 foot sharks and the rod performed perfectly. ✔ Yes, I recommend this product.

  47. Fred Biffle

    Bought the rod last month for sturgeon fishing. Lots of choices but settled on the 7′ medium heavy ugly stick. Only landed a 4′ sturgeon but have no doubt it will handle larger.

  48. Anonymous

    Great quality rod. Very good action, throws very nicely, the handle is nice and long for putting in rocks or beach holder. The tip is sensitive. What more can you want.

  49. YourAverageJoe,

    Excellent purchase! – I bought this rod about 2 weeks ago with the expectation of getting it around this time. I have already had it for about a week and a half.
