There are two brands I love the most. One is the Ugly Stic by Shakesphere, the other is the Beef Stic by Diawa. Both seem to hold up far better than other rods I've had.

I love the ugly sticks, I have started to replace my old rods with them, as I use to make all my rods before my hands got bad.
I have a 6 1/2 CMS custom for Fluking, $225 at are local place and its a nice rod, I have it for sale now trying to make a few bucks. When I made my rods I use to love the St. Croix Blanks, that's my go to rod to this day and has caught 1000's of fish on one rod!

American Rodsmiths, Castaways and have some customs, a friend of mine builds them for a living.
I dont know how yall use ugly sticks, they are like limp noodles compared to the ones I an used to. I dont like my whole handle and reel seat bending when I bow up on a fish.

Inshore spinning I use Shimano Teramar, all my other bigger spinners are on Custom Key Largo rods. For jigging and alot of bottom fishing I use Shimano Trevala jigging rods. Lots of action and still have a backbone so I can horse snapper around if i lock down the drag on my Torque. As for my other bottom and trolling rods I have Penn International rods. These rods were recommended by my tackle store and I could not be happier with them.
