12 foot ugly stik fishing rod BWSF1530S102 Bigwater Spinning and significantly reduced weight for all Ugly Stik Bigwater Conventional Rod

A true cannon of a 9wt, perhaps not a delicate 20 ft dry fly, but this was a 9wt so it should be expected to cast heavy flies perhaps into heavy winds

A very nice, honest and highly usable example of a classic Hardy made Orvis reel, with strong appeal for both the angler and collector alike.

The action was so natural to them
