This 10 footer surf fishing rod has been on my wish list for quite some time and I finally got one today. It is the legendary Shakespeare "Ugly Stik Gold" . The model no: is USG-GPS100A2. The rod comprises 2 sections and features 7 "Fuji" guides + tip. This surf rod is suited for medium/heavy action with a line rating of 6 ~10 kg, just nice for surf fishing from the jetty or shoreline.
I was rather surprised to find the "Ugly Stik Gold" in a local shop as all the while I thought it is only available in Australia. Shakespeare had launched the "Gold" series in Australia (way back in 1998) to offer the consumer a more affordable high quality fishing rod. The RRP in Australia is AUD 145.00.
How did "Ugly Stik" gets its name ? Check it out here.
