Excelente

Great product. Just what i hoped it to be.I ordered a second one.It came and was the same great product.

Not too big of a deal but In the photos and description you can see they have advertised the Shakespeare ugly stik gx2 3 piece. What I received was a 2 piece Gx2. No shakespeare anywhere. I am a newer angler, so I don’t really know the difference between the regular Gx2 vs the rods that says Shakespeare on it but it was kind of a selling point for me tbh. I was a bit bummed after waiting due to late delivery to see it wasn’t what I expected to receive but I’m probably going to keep it because I waited so long but as the title says.. kind of disappointed. Don’t get be wrong, the rod is freaking nice.

Great rod. Great price. Great action. Recommend rod.

This is your new best travel freshwater plunker or general-purpose saltwater rod. Pairs ABSOLUTELY PERFECTLY with a KastKing Megatron 6000. I'm running 25lb orange mono to 20lb clear mono, and have had no issues. Throws 3oz weights without issue, and I've taken it up to 4oz in faster rivers.

Exactly what I wanted. I recently purchased this fishing rod to take on a canoe trip to the boundary waters/Quetico with friends. Part of this trip was flying, part driving, and part packing-in and portaging canoes and gear. To my surprise, I managed to get this rod packed inside of my 2-man backpacking tent bag and it traveled effortlessly every step of the way. No one but me would have even known I had a fishing rod with me at any point on this trip other than while I was fishing.When using it, I found that the 6.5 ft length with medium action on this rod was very close to my non-packable rod with the exception that the tip stiffness on this rod is a little more sensitive than my 2-piece rod of the same size and rating. In every respect, it fished quite well and I got the best casts I've ever experienced in my life using this in combination with my Shimano spinning reel, and brand-new Trilene "smooth casting" line in 10lb test. Unbelievable distance, even with light lures, and perfect placement of casts, as well. My buddies were in awe and they're all bigger than me!I landed a lot of good-sized smallmouth bass, a few average Northern pike, and even one 10 pound, 32 inch Northern on this trip without even a shiver, creak, or squeak out of the rod. It felt quite capable of handling everything that came its way. I am sure I never took it anywhere near its limits of strength even though several of these fish bent it in half with the tip down into the water while they went under the canoe.I can't say that I am an avid fisherman but I do have many years of fishing under my belt and I can attest that this rod is excellent in every respect. My packable rod was the only one in our group that didn't take up any headroom in our van on the long trip to the North woods and back. It also portaged effortlessly since it was inside of my backpack in my tent bag. All the other rods we had with us needed to be carried on portages. I only wish my buddies were as focused on the functionality of their gear as I am! Traveling would be so much easier and more comfortable for all of us. For the others who flew in, in addition to their usual luggage, they also had to contend with carrying their rods on airplanes in carrying tubes...and risk losing them. The pack rod just makes so much more sense on every count.For all but those who may be very hard on their gear, it is my opinion (based upon this one trip) that this rod is a winner and would be handy for anyone who fishes. It goes together and comes apart easily, stores neatly and securely into its own carrying tube, and is a perfect solution for all portability needs. All this with little or no noticeable sacrifice in fishing performance (with the possible exception of very hard use and/or extremely large fish). What's not to like? I have already recommended this to several others and will continue to do so.

Good Product.
