Shakespeare Ugly Stik Tour 2014

Time:
Location: Ports in Uk and Ireland

An interesting promotion drive from the Shakespeare Team, well worth taking a look at this!

The purpose of the Ugly Stik tour is to celebrate the new range of Ugly Stik GX2 boat rods. Ugly Stik is synonymous with anglers globally who are looking for a tough, reliable, and flexible rod to use for different tactics and occasions.

The Ugly Stik tour will take one rod around various locations of the UK & Ireland... the same rod will be used by each skipper to catch a variety of species using different tactics... from Shark fishing to wrecking for Pollack and everything in between.

As part of our Ugly Stik Tour one lucky angler will be in with a chance of winning a days fishing on board one of our sponsored boats with the Shakespeare team. They will also walk away with all tackle they use during the day (rod/reel/terminal tackle etc). All you need to do is get to the port on the day of fishing.

To enter the competition all they need to do is ‘like’ our latest feature of the Ugly Stik Tour on our facebook page, and they will be picked at random to come and join us for the day. Log on to the link below, and scroll down the features and info regarding the tour.

UK Ugly Stik Tour – Part 1 June 10th 2014: Sea Otter 2, Whitby. Caught a lot of small cod up to 7lb on small shads and lures, many thanks to Skipper Paul Kilpatrick for his hard work we had a fantastic day. Aim of the tour is to 'fish' one of our new Ugly Stik 12/20lb GX2 rods around our sponsored boats and get our skippers to give it a hammering.

I am sure we will learn a lot about the different fishing techniques and species we have around our coast. Also great to meet all our sponsored skippers and help promote our new GX2 boat rods. Next trip is planned on July 30th down in Plymouth with Malc Jones on Sea Angler 2. We are hoping to have a go at shark fishing and are offering our facebook friends the chance to join us FOC for the day – Like this post and we’ll enter you into a random draw to win, draw will take place on Thursday 19th June.

(Prize = Cost of day aboard Sea Angler 2 and a new GX2 Boat rod of your choice – you will need to get to Plymouth at 7.30 am on July 30th. Look out for more Facebook posts and videos from the Ugly Tour.
