I stopped by to see my Uncle who lives at Ocean Isle Beach, NC last week, he showed me 2 Penn Long Beach rods with 209 reels, 3 like new Ugly Sticks, and a Penn inshore rod his neighbor was puttung in the trash about a month ago...he said the Long Beach rods had some green corrosion on them and the other three each had a broken eye...he had cleaned them up and replaced the broken eyes, they all looked brand new.

I have a 7' heavy action Ugly Stick with a Abu Garcia 6501 on it that is my favorite Alabama Rig rod.
But the lighter action US's are too limber for sure.

Time to restart this thread.
I have a few US's .. I love them for freshwater fishing. But my favorite stick for chumming Bluefish is a Daiwa Beef Stick. Funny thing about the rod. I was on a night fishing party boat,..fella near me gets a strike, the rod snaps about 6" inches below the tip.... he gets the fish, takes off the reel, throws the rod on the deck... uses a rental rod for the rest of the night. As we're getting off the boat I pick up the rod and yell to him that he forgot his rod. He says throw the piece of s**t in the garbage. I take it home, cut off the jagged end just below the break, glued on a new tip, married it to a Daiwa 50H reel and it's been a consistent producer of fish ever since. Great action, strong enough backbone to horse in even the heavy 20 lb + chomper Bluefish.
