Ohhhhh so you can't step on it or slam it in a car door ? dang it lol ! j/k I did get a replacement for the broken one and never had an issue with it. caught some big carp on our river here. I heard they had some problems when they first came out with them, maybe some quality control. was also a lot younger and maybe was a little hmm hmm hmm hard on my equipment back then

good to see they are going strong ( pun intended ) they have been around for a long time. I think my issue could have been a fluke. the replacement they sent me was fine for a few years. I then changed to a different maunfacturer for better feel. wonder how many stick's they have sold since they came out ?

Yep, both of my salmon rods are medium-action Ugly Stiks.

You CAN, according to the commercial.

Well I guess you could but I would not take the chance. I had to learn to take better care of my equipment when I started using Fenwick rods. I think I also did not use light enough line. once I started to learn how to backreel and use the flex of the rod, as they say the fish were history lol!
