As an avid angler who fishes in both Alaska and Florida, I can attest to its exceptional performance.\nBest fishing ground for testing durability of fishing reels and rods is Pacific Northwest especially Alaska\nIn Alaska, I pair my UglyStik rod with either a Penn Battle 10K reel or a Daiwa BG Spinning reel (8000 series), spooled with 100lb Spider Wire braided fishing line. This setup allows me to effectively jig for halibut, rockfish, and ling cod in waters ranging from 80 to 200 feet deep.\n\nI also use the same rod and reel combination to jig for squid at depths of 300 to 400 feet. The UglyStik's sensitivity and strength make it an ideal choice for these applications.\n\nWhat's more, this versatile rod enables me to cast for salmon, troll with a downrigger, and bottom fish using 1-3 lb cannonballs with circle hooks. The UglyStik's performance is truly unparalleled – its ability to quickly present jigs weighing 4-12 oz is significantly faster than conventional reels.\n\nOverall, the UglyStik Tiger Rods Spinner is an unspeakably effective and unpredictable rod that consistently delivers exceptional results in deep-water jigging applications.\"\nIn Alaska: we have 4 spinning rods 6' 130 lb and 2 conventional 5'8\" 200 lb rods .
