- when I first start using these rods back when I started my Channel these rods were white, closer to the traditional Ugly Stik Catfish Rod. Now these rods look Completely different.

Started with Ugly Stix 7ft and then went 8ft when POP and I started targeting catfish. Still have them and occasionally use them.
Love the new Orange and black color, so looking to buy a couple in near future!!!
I'm really digging that new ugly stik, I gotta check those out. Great video.
Thanks for the share and I'm sure they're quality rods having been an Ugly Stik fan for close to near exactly 40 years. I'd have to handle a couple to form an opinion or purchase but your thoughts and opinion were well worth a look-see. Good fishin' to you this year! Gonna sub before buying so get to catchin'!
Had to sign in to like this video love the energy
I used two of these rods (8' casting) last season. I beat the hell out of them guiding and they stood up to a couple thousand pounds of big channel cats each. I plan to use a complete set of six of them this year.
Never had an Ugly Stick. Think I'll order one online and check it out. Thanks as always for sharing brother. Regards to Blizzard Al!! 👍🏾👊🏾✊🏾🤣💯
I went up to Canada one time and we went down a logging road for two hours to get to the lake.
At the end of the road all my rods except for one was broken.
Now I use Ugly Stiks for all my trips and leave my "nicer" stuff at home. I also use them for when I ride my bike around and fish.
BnM Silver Cat Elite @ Bass Pro is a fantastic rod & used by several catfish guides in Tennessee
Thanks for walking me through this! Guess I'm looking for an older rod, 2 piece 7ft white catfish ugly stik. I can outcast my both 8ft slime cat rods with the ugly stik, can't figure why but it's a problem that needs remedied quick
I actually bought 2 myself. 1 spinning, 1 casting. 8ft. Thought long and hard looked at all my options. And I'm using them for multi species. So couldn't just go grab broom stick of a catfish rod. For the price and quality i really couldn't beat it. Handle is the best foam handle I have its not close. Using new picifun reels, hopefully break them in this spring. Nice video bro
Thank you. I know I cant wait to use them. One, it's just take me back when I was having fun and it wasnt about a rod.
@@ALotOfFishing I normally do handline fishing. I'm new to this rod and reel thing. I got the white old model catfish medium heavy rod. What size spinning reel can I put on it ?
Thank you in advance for your help brother
First off I love ugly stick and there affordable pricing. Still own two catfish white rod with green tips old school ones with abu garcia 6500c3. I bought this new 10ft cat fish special rod to go with my cat fish special 7000c3 Abu Garcia. Love the looks but man after few trips casting it it really blows. I have to put atleast 6oz weight to really get good cast, and 4 is it limit. And other downfall is the bottom half below the reel is to short u can't get a good hold it feels top heavy when u throw it...... if you know I mean!!!
Ps. Ill be going with whisker seeker fmj 9.6 foot rod for this reel next purchase
The orange color looks sweet
didnt even know they released a new version. i have the original white version , great rod for the money that i can toss around with out worrying about it breaking.
Been looking to buy me a catfish rod! I been using a lews speed stick for catfishing lately lol it hasn’t broke YET… 🤣🤦🏽♂️
Shakespeare Tiger works pretty damn good as well🎣🎣🎣
I got the same Lew's stick . Slammed some nice bass with it on the stock line. I think it's 10 lb . Straight from Walmart . I go catfishing with it. My dad said you would be surprised what that fishing pole could pull in . He's seen his buddy pull in monster's on a damn jig pole lol I guess at the end of the day I just want a catfish rod haha
I bought the 9' spinning. It's great. I should have gotten 2.
I feel ya my man I get with the shakes in there
yes bro i have an orange ANCIENT MARINER 6000 Round Baitcasting Reel on my catfish special. they are a very nice looking rod.
If I can find one up here I'm going pick one up bro 👍🏼
I love them I have 3, what kind of reels are you going to put on them
Good review
Catfish conference is like a kid at a Candy store 🤣
Gonna have to get one of these. I still use my ole Zebco Hawg Seeker. Reliable as ever.
Hit me up if you wanna link up this year. I live down in BG and fish the Maumee all the time.
That’ll go good with the Abu Catfish Special reel
Bass Pro here don't have half stuff where you live good luck nice rod
One other thing about the new design also is the tip on the orange 8’ rod compared to the white 8’ rod, is not as soft as the white. Has a much better bend to it.
Are you saying the first bend in the new orange rods is closer to the middle, wherea, the white rod’s bend is closer to the tip??
Guides have become a lot thinner on the Ugly Stiks. I have the 2 year old white Catfish casting rods and they are really thin. Those on the Catfish Special rods look a bit thicker and really beefier than the ones on the white rods.
I looked at 2 of these at Cabelas today. I needed a spinning rod. They had 2 with the straight spinning rod handle but all of the eyelets were narrow diameter like a casting rod. It didn't look right so I passed.
I have the same set up in a 10 foot I love thim
Try the ugly stick salmon/steelhead rod. 8 & 1/2 foot Elite. Heavy action 12 - 25 pound test,. 1/2 to 1 3/4 ounce lure. They are awesome for channel cats!
I use an old Ugly stik Tiger 7 footer, I like it
So do I. I have 6 of them. The Tiger elite is my favorite.
I still have my OG Uglies. I had to glue an insert in. I had to joust a goose incoming full flight. The goose won, knocked me down, damn near off a steep bank into the river.
But luckily these dont have inserts... I cant stand inserts anymore
Have a question, I purchased a slime cat 7000 baitcast reel, would you recommend a 10 ft 2 piece mad katz orange crush heavy or a 7ft 6 mad katz rod, been searching for Rods trying to get some sugar thanks
I saw them last week while I was there
I use a 9'6 whisker seeker .1 to 12 oz .is what it can handle ..10 to 50lbs of line weight..fast action .100.00 bucks ..metal reel seats .ossom rod.orange and black .also
Nothing Wrong With Going Back To The Drawing Board👍🏻
my brother lost one of my go to rod and reels and I picked up the catfish special ugly stick paired with a pflueger president 40
Which of the white ugly stik catfish rods would you recommend the 7' or 8' mh 2 PC. rod great video keep em coming
I can offer mine. I have tried the white 7 ft baitcasting and I have tried both the 8 ft white and the 8 ft orange. The catfish specials are a much better rod in general. However, there can be some hit and miss quality control issues with the catfish specials. So I would recommend checking one out in person otherwise you'll find yourself going through at least 50 plus rods like I did to find one that had the right feel. Some are extremely top-heavy or bottom heavy. Some of them are really flimsy at the tip and others feel like a broomstick in the same location. The rod butts on these are either going to be solid or what it feels like you can practically push your finger through the bottom because there's not enough filler. But they're much lighter to cast compared to the white catfish rods. If you go with a white catfish rod go with the 7 ft baitcaster. That one's pretty good. But if you're going to be bank fishing go with the 8 ft catfish special. With casting sinkers. Even though the rated 1 oz to 3 oz, The sweet spot is 1 to 2 oz. I would use a 3 oz on those unless it was absolutely necessary to lug.
I never want to leave
Looking for a new catfish pole for my vintage 888 reel you going with the carbon catfish or the catfish special ?
Are those new rods a slower action rod?
You can apoxie the two pieces to gather work good 👍
What size and brand spinning reel would you usefor ugly stick med heavy catfish spinning rod I plan on buying 8' or 9' rod I fish lakes for channel catfish.I really your video on fishing line hooks and rod holders
My issue with ugly stucks was back in the day the eva fian was so cheap, it would literally tear from the handle
What reels are you going to use on these?
The ugly stick catfish rods are nice I thought about getting one
Did you ever post a video of you using the rods
Even the old school white uglystick catfish rods are are better than the newer white uglystick catfish rods
Which bass pro shop did you go to?
Damn my local basspro don’t have those rods.
I believe the GX2 series is one piece
Ugly sticks are good record catfish was caught on one
They're nice looking rods. It doesn't look they're using Fuji components anymore. And it seems like they're under rating their casting weights. I'll tell what I do whenever I get new gear. Register for the warranty then I go out and abuse the life out of it and if it breaks get the replacement knowing what it can and can't do. I had a surf rod that was rated for 8oz max once I broke it I knew I could throw 14oz on it.
Aye...for the first time I did just that because I thought about that. I got that warranty just to see what I can do with these rods.
Im buying one
Big game rods the one.
Berkeley? I had one snap in half second time out!
Just bought an Ugly Stik "Tiger Lite". Says heavy action, 1-5 oz lures, 14-40 lb line. Tip is thin and seems excellent. Guides are some of the best I've seen. Try it out when it warms up. 80.00.
BTW bought a GX2 Bigwater 7 foot 1 piece at Dick's this last Fall on sale for $42
Look at Big Cat Fever Rods
Are these rods going to replace the Ugly Stik tiger rods??
No!
The bass pro near me rod selection sucks. Yours have like 2x more rod selection than mines
Can this catfish rods be used in the surf??
Not sure...but ugly Stik does have rods that support surf fishing
@@ALotOfFishing yeah, but I like the specs and look of this new catfish rod. I’ll probably get one and test it out. Thank you!
I like ugly stick 's i have 2 10 foot and 1 12 foot ugly stick
Just get a uglystick tiger rod m.h best catfish rod ever 😉 7:18
Oh ya, 7', one piece.
Well I looked at them at bass pro. Price has gone up and quality gone to the toilet !
I 100% agree. my content was based on the the comparison of the previous rod not Technically ORIGINAL! not much is the same anymore!
@@ALotOfFishing
Yup. Pure junk
You couldn’t give me a GX2. Let me know how you like these. I’m 61 been using ugly stick sense they came out. GX2 is junk
epoxy them and have a one piece.
The b&m silvercat elite is better and cheaper
Sir ! Nothing about this rod is ORIGINAL Ugly stik.
He said "some have a trigger and some don't"... Does he know that they're for different types of reels?
Lmao...yes baitcast, spincast and spinning reels. You are not talking to a novice!
Ugly stik SUCKS! I have 5 and primary use is catfishig. I have two big waters tha I can not even cast, after purchase became disabled. Being physically disabled I now am very sensitive to the work ability of any fishing rod. They just aren’t getting it right. Long rods are for casting and getting heavy bait out their. A rod that works proper basically casts itself. F the colors, get the rod right . We need 11’ medium heavy fast action casting 2-8 Oz casting rod . Using braid will get you further casts with less effort . Level winds are for use when intoxicated. Oh , burnt orange cool and x flock handle , no padding.
