Description
Shakespeare Ugly Stik is a really excellent entry-level rod for lure fishing. One famed for its value-to-quality ratio. Whilst we wouldn’t recommend it for anyone looking to target powerful saltwater predators, it’s an excellent starting rod to get yourself acquainted with targeting freshwater predators. Pike, perch et al. Heck, it can even handle a little bass and wrasse action. And at this price point, you cannot go wrong.
Construction-wise the graphite and fibreglass construction belies its pricepoint and – with a casting weight of 20 – 80g it can handle some pretty serious lures. Whilst the tip isn’t anywhere near the sensitivity of the SGS8 or Major Craft Ceana rods, it’s more than acceptable. And clearly, it wouldn’t be reasonable to expect that at this price. It’s why the rod makes it into our favourite lure fishing rods.
