    I like ugly sticks not because I think they are the best but because I don't baby my rods and I want something that will hold up and not cost and arm and a leg.
    When it comes to a reel I'm as fussy. Except I don't want the bottom end of the brand. I've got Mitchell, Daiwa, Cabela's, Okuma, Pflueger, shakespear, to name a few
    I mainly use tackle bags. I just need to find someone to carry it for me.

    Wow!  Never thought this thread would become this popular.  I've been off the forums for a while, so I haven't really kept updated on everything.

    Hmm, I think my favorite over the years has been a rod made up of the center section of an old fly rod and the tip section of a damaged UL rod.
    The reel I used was a mitchel 308 and later I also used a quick 110, both European made.
