Sensible anglers have chosen the versatile and value priced Ugly Stik for its durability and sensitivity since the 1970s. Made with Ugly Tech Construction, a combination of graphite and fiberglass, the Catfish Spinning Rod provides tremendous strength in a rod that's tough enough to withstand getting banged around at night while catfishing. Ugly Stik rods feature one-piece Ugly Tuff guides, made of a single piece of stainless steel to eliminate ceramic guide inserts popping out and resist saltwater corrosion. Staying true to the original Ugly Stik Rod, the Catfish Spinning Rod has the legendary Clear Tip to enhance strength and sensitivity. Durable EVA handles provide all-day casting and fish-fighting comfort.
