The Ugly Stik GX2 Spinning Rod shown here is the 6-foot 6-inch, Medium-power model with a two-piece layout. It follows the GX2 series emphasis on strength and durability, with updated components intended to improve sensitivity as well as resistance to regular use.

The two-piece format is a useful detail when planning storage or carrying the rod between fishing locations. Pairing decisions can start with this model’s specific length, power and spinning layout before selecting the rest of your tackle.
