I have gone through 3 of them in ... *by A***R on March 24, 2016* This pole is horrible! I have gone through 3 of them in the past year due to manufacturer defects on the reel. The reel grinds and won't catch the bael when trying to real in. ### ⭐⭐ Not a reel good deal. *by K***R on April 8, 2015* I give it two stars for the rod; nothing for the reel. As other have stated, the reel is cheap. I intended on buying an Ugly Stick. I didn't need a reel, but it was only $10 more for the combo (when I was shopping). I don't think the reel was worth that. Like others have said, it is cheap.But, here is the most annoying thing, that I wish I would have know ahead of time. It is described as, "plus a one-way clutch instant anti-reverse bearing." What this means is that the crank does not back up, any. If you are ready for a cast and the line is at the bottom of the spool, you cannot back it up to where the bail is on top. There is not an option to turn this off like on most other reels.I only used this reel for a while and it was so annoying I switched it out, but in the little time that I used it, it already started making noise like it was wearing. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great rods, Crap reels *by E***. on February 1, 2019* The shakespeare reels that come on this combo are crap. You're basically getting an excellent sturdy rod with a free reel. If you can find an ugly stik by itself for cheaper, get it and put a Penn Pursuit or Fierce2 on it. The shakespeare reels don't last more than one season of weekly fishing. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.es/products/77523096-shakespeare-ugly-stik-gx2-spinning-rod-combo](https://www.desertcart.es/products/77523096-shakespeare-ugly-stik-gx2-spinning-rod-combo) --- *Product available on Desertcart Spain* *Store origin: ES* *Last updated: 2026-05-25*
