Came in thin plastic sleeve product was damaged, have never ordered a rod threw the mail that wasn't protected by a cardboard tube , very disappointing, not a bad product but shipping package was a joke will never order fishing rods from Amazon again .

I have all 3 Tiger casting rods and love the feel (fast tip, strong backbone), lightweight, and the value. My ML12-30lbs rod is 40+ years old and is my all-time favorite rod (paired with Newell converted Jigmaster Jr. and 20# test). FYI - the jigging rods are not similar, they feel like broomsticks.

These rods are the best bang for the buck out there despite what the tackle shops tell you. If they can carry these rods and charge them higher than Walmart, the tackle shops would be filled with these rods.I've caught a lot of small sharks (15 to 80 lbs. ) with a 7 feet Ugly Stik Tiger casting rod rated for 15- 40 lb. mono. These sticks can really flex so you can get the bait out there behind the surf. They are a little heavier than the all graphite rods but they are more durable.I started out fishing about 25 years ago with these rods. Of course after getting on the cattle boats seeing other people with highter cost rods one would think that those are better because of cost. I upgraded to Calstar, Seeker, Shimano, Daiwa, and others. Over time I realized that the big names are not that much better, just bigger cost by a lot. At the end of the day, a fifty rod and a five hundred dollar rod would all lose to a car door.So in this case with the Ugly Stik Tiger , low cost does not mean it's junk . It's just that no one can beat what Walmart offers. I would highly recommend the Ugly Stik Tiger series and the GX2 .And for the guys with those Gucci rods and reels setup costing 500-$1,500 , I;m sure you've been on those trips where you looked great with that setup watching the guy with the Ugly Stik catching fish. :}

Didn’t expect to be this beefy. Thought it would be smaller. Diameter wise. Looks good.

Been fishing with Ugly Stiks for decades. The Tiger rods are the best big-water rods for the money. I have this one rigged with a Shimano round bait caster with 50lb braid for big cats. Rod has great action and casts fantastic with a 2oz sinker.

Ugly Stiks really fit where I am right now. After years of doing gear rentals to go out on a fishing boat I'm building up a quiver. These ugly stiks represents huge value for the money. I picked up a US big water at a brick and mortar but i just didn't fit what I wanted to do with it. The fishing pole eyelets between the two models are different. WHen the tiger model came in I knew I had what I wanted.In a few months there will be a fishing expos where the high end names will be present and I can look into put grading a pole or two to something closer to to shelf. MAybe not as these poles get the job done and I tend to lean on the side of practically rather than superficiality.I have a full quiver now and am planning an extended fishing trip this winter to where the tuna will be. I'll fly the ugly stiks and my reels over. I'd like to put a ful season on everything (most the reels are 2nd hand) before i decide to save the money on gear and book another trip or not.Those ugly stiks have a fantastic warranty. Best rod for the money at the that pricepoint. Even doubling the cost, I think US are still hard to beat. Once you get into the $250 region than there are brands that become available that are boutique /top shelf names that haven't watered down (pun intended) their brand name.Hope you all limit out soon, see you on the boat.
