20% off for the 6'6" medium 2-pc spinning rod and reel combo. Basically you get the reel for free with this highly rated and reliable rod.

Edit: shipping to home OOS around 30 minutes after this deal is posted. Local store pickup YMMV.

Yeah pretty much. In general I can't say enough about ugly stik rods. This combo is more suited for fresh-water. Ugly Stik has several models. The gx2 is an improvement over the original model and I was told has more graphite and carbon. I personally own the original, gx2's (stiffer backbone), Catfish and the striper series. I prefer the one piece

Is this made of cast iron? What's the difference?

Thanks OP. I picked up a fishing license this year and had the rod in my AZ cart for a month now. This should at least get me help get me started fishing again.

Not a slick deal. I bought this reel/rod combo from Walmart a few years ago for $25 and it has been regularly on sale for $30 or less. The reel is complete garbage and you'll want to ditch it after only a few uses.

Hmm, they dont have the 1-piece 7' light/ultra light listed any more. That's one of the best crappie rod/reel I have.
