Anyone have any recomendations on these? The E-glass composite idea sounds interesting; as I really like my E-glass cat rod.. and it seems to be more sensitive than the straight e-glass as well. The only thing I find kinda funny is that it's a $30 rod and the grips are EVA. Oddly enough I only have one rod with a cork grip anyways.. and it does not seem to make a lot of difference to me.. I do like the twist-lock design though.. as it's less fidgiting with re-tightening the reel seat all the time...
Also I'm debating between the 6'0 and the 6'6". There's actually quite a bit of difference between the two for thickness and weight. I allready tried the 7' "medium" action, which is as thick as my cat rod. And the 5'10" is more like an ultra-light.
The seven year waranty is apealing.. most premium rods twice that price don't offer that...
But in general has anyone had any good... or bad.. expreinces with the Ugly Stick?
