>>686890and if anything breaks the reel is 20 bucks and the rod is 30-something so its not too hard to replace. id also advise having one of those "rod tip repair kits" theyre about 5-8 bucks to get one like pic related, and a lighter, ive had problems in recent years of the tips of uglysticks breaking (the insert in the tip top eyeguid falls out. heat the base of the guide up witht he lighter, pull it off with pliers, slip the new one on and glue it, dip it in the water to get it cool faster, youre back in buisiness.)
