The Shakespeare® Ugly Stik® Elite Salmon/Steelhead Casting Rod features lengths and actions tailored specifically for salmon and steelhead fishing. Ugly Tech™ Construction with 35% more graphite than the GX2 Ugly Stiks give anglers a lighter weight, more sensitive rod, while retaining the strength and reliability Ugly Stik fishing rods are famous for. The Ugly Tuff™ 1-piece stainless steel guides are super slick so line flows through smoothly, while providing maximum durability and eliminating insert pop-outs. The Elite rod blank is finished off with Ugly Stik's signature Clear Tip® fiberglass tip that delivers extra strength right where you need it. Conventional style reel seats with cushioned stainless steel hoods hold reel in place securely.

Wonderful Rods!These rods are tough to beat for the money...strong, sensitive and feel great in action. I have fished with many of the pricier name brands, but none, especially with Ugly Stik's newer design, have prompted me to fork out the extra cash when these Ugly Stik Elite's are available. I have also read where some of the old-school Ugly Stik fans are complaining about the new design, but they need not worry...these rods are tough as nails, and will still take twice the abuse of more expensive rods.

Ugly Stik not so Uglythis was my gift to myself for Chum Salmon season here in WA state, I matched this rod with a baitcasting reel and put 15 pound mono on, my son and I caught more than a dozen fish over two days and I even had to fight off a seal for one of those fish; though it all the rod performed beautifully. I wish I could attach the video of the rod almost bent in half while fighting a seal with my salmon in its mouth, everyone we were fishing with was either laughing or cringing that the rod would break. Score was 1 for fisherman...0 for seal, catch your own fish, silly seal.

9' 1/2 to 1-1 1/2 oz casting rodGot this at my local store and used it for the first time today chasing steelhead with spoons. Great rod, back bone while still having a sensitive tip. Felt every spoon vibration. Highly recommended. Only weird thing, the back grip is about two inches too long for my casting style. But love the rod, so can learn to live with it.

Asked by: yg76
Can this rod be used in salt water?
Asked by: Jhonata86
Thank you for your inquiry. This rod is species specific, but it is certainly strong enough to be used in saltwater, depending on which model you choose. I would strongly advise you to clean the rod with fresh water at the end of each day that you take it out into the salt.
