  1. Ive never used a cork handled graphite ugly stick before, and to be honest wasn't even aware they made them. I think this thread illustrates the point of Bass Resource, there is an incredible amount of knowledge and experience on this site. Its fantastic that a group of people who are by their very nature competitive, are willing to lend advice to others.

  3. Havent you ever heard of shrinkage!!!???lol
  4. This is a fairly common problem with braid line beginers. You must use mono backing on the spool because the braid is so slippery.
  5. Ok, forget the ugly stick, I thought you wanted to spend less than 100. Check out some of the browning combos, or a Pflueger reel, bps rod combo. Thay will find something decent in your price range.
