A Good Deal
By Harry
Excellent rod for fishing in southern Nevada and surf fishing on the Pacific. Coupled with my Zebco I purchased I could not ask for a better combination. With free shipping it beat the local stores in overall cost too. Both products are well made.

good products.
By charlie
pros: great quality. I bought for striper fishing and catfish, and this rod is the perfect one. It's for 10-25lb fish, and the weight and strength are great for it.
cons:
no

Broke on first fishing trip
By Thenew3
I got this rod to match up with my Abu Garcia Ambassadeur 5601 C4 reel. I got the 2 piece instead of one piece because it is easier to haul it around in the trunk of the car without sticking into the rear passenger compartment.On the very first trip, I hooked a 24" Ling cod on the 2nd cast. While trying to bring the Cod in, I hear a snap and look up and my rod had snapped right where the two pieces are connected together! The graphite just fell apart into many tiny gray strands of fiber.Luckily the fish was just a few feet away from the boat and we were able to get it onboard.I tried to contact Shakespeare to get it replaced under their 7 year warranty. What a joke that warranty is. They require you to send it back to them at your expense, and then they also require you to send a $9.95 check to cover their shipping the replacement rod back to you. Given it's a irregular size, it would have cost me $15 to ship it back to them. Add that to the $9.95 they wanted, that's $25 which is more than what I paid for the brand new rod from Amazon ($24).Luckily I got this less than a month ago from Amazon, and Amazon agreed to send me a replacement free of charge and to also pay for shipping to return the defective unit back to them.Top notch customer service from Amazon, Poor warranty from Shakespeare!I hope the replacement rod won't break as easily and that it was just a random one time occurrence. People keep telling me ugly stiks are strong and durable. This is my first ugly stick and so far it hasn't been a good one. I may just have to go back to abu garcia rods and reels.
