- RGRobert G.Verified Reviewer4 days agoRated 2 out of 5 starsNice rod. Trash reel.
I bought this because I’ve used an older model that my father in law owns. It’s lasted him for years. The rod is great. Stiff flex which is perfect for fighting aggressive fish. The reel is sub par cheap trash. The second time I took this out the pin holding the handle assembly fell out while walking to my fishing spot. I tried to find a replacement with no luck. I reached out to Ugly Stik. They never answered my question but had the nerve to send a server on their performance. I sent another email and was told they are back logged and don’t have the parts. Instead they sent me a link for their parts supplier. Guess what they don’t have the part either. I was walking around my local sporting goods store. Half the Ugly Stik reels were missing their handle assemblies. Seems like this is an on going issue if people are stealing what they need from a store. Obviously no help from the company and no finding the part online so people are going to do what they are going to do. I don’t condone that behavior but a part of me understands it. Then I come on here and see people are having the same issues with the same rod/reel combo. Not trying to bash yall but get your life right. Using cheap plastic that feels cheap and not having the part to repair it is ludicrous. If you stand by your product then you need to stand on business and fix the issue. Not provide a link that doesn’t even carry the part needed. Quit passing the buck. I want to give yall a chance but it’s not looking good. I…

- TJTommy J.Verified Reviewer3 weeks agoRated 2 out of 5 starsUgly stik break down
The Rod i purchased was the 7 ft medium/ Heavy combo with a G2 50 REEL The rod seem to be good but the reel is way below ugly stik quality! My spool bottoms out when reeling itand the handle has broken so i think the reel is obviously not good and im very disappointed. I would like to swap the entire reel in for a new one, i probably own around 10 other Ugly stik rods and actually 3 10ft bream busters.

just got this set to the lake. used it for a fee hours and then the handle came unscrewed and it fell in the lake. Found some of it but what an aweful situation and with no extra rod to throw. Had to share with my kid. Ruined a father sun fishing day.

Definitely one of the rotten real combos, but I’ve tried so far. Would love to try your bait caster out and all your other products under review on them on TikTok.
