Ugly Stick
I know some people are fans of Ugly Stick. And I have no idea how their offshore rods preform, but i'll probably never buy one. I hate their bass rods so damn much, I cant see myself spending money on any other type to try one out.
Like trying to set the hook with a cane pole.

I'm not a fan of the ugly stiks
You can get a trevala for like $50 more and it has a lifetime warranty
Load that bitch with 65-80# jerry brown

Gotcha, I've never used them for small tackle...we have a trevala and a couple of ugly sticks.
I prefer the trevala for just about every application (except casting) but I wouldn't want to buy 3 or 4 of them.
As far as lb test line, if I remember off of the top of my head, we have two set up with 60 lb braid, one with 80 lb braid, and one with 150 lb braid.
I would absolutely put braided line on there since it doesn't stretch like mono. The braid will give more action to your jigging and it's easier for newcomers to learn the palomar knot than other knots.
