Thanks for the heads up - I adjusted my price accordingly: http://www.bigwatersedge.com/bwevb/s...ad.php?t=13632

I have several Shakespeare Ugly Stick Rods I got at big 5 for less then 50.00 on sale. I have caught a lot of yellowtail (My PB of 35lbs)and a few Tsharks , and they preform excellent.
I saved up and bought a used but like new seeker 9ft jig rod for 150.00. I lost it in the surf the second time I used it. Might not be a bad idea if your new to yak fishing not to invest in top of the line rods and reels just yet.
I think I will replace my jig rod with an 8ft Sabre jig rod for 50.00 bucks and a diawa sealine reel.
Sabre and Shakespeare Ugly Stick rods though cheap in price(when on sale,and there on sale once a month I think)work really well. I still feel like I lost a loved one with that seeker rod.
