Hi every one, hope your all leaving fish in the water for me.
I picked up a Shakespeare ugly stik reel, US.30B I think purefishing have taken over, I tried to phone them, without any luck, maybe I am getting the international code mixed up, I am after chumatics of the reel, its possibly the size, between a senator 4/0 & a 6/0, if anyone can help it would be much appreciated, cheers Don.
When I stripped this reel, lots of parts, fell out thats why, I was after schematic, but I managed to service all the parts, place it back together, they are a beautiful reel really well made, I will try & get some pictures, thanks for all the help, Haa Ha, cheers Don.
Don asked me to post a few photos on his behalf.
So Donny Boy, here you go!!!!!

Yee Ha Wayne thanks a million, got me beet why Jennifer says your usless, as the pictures give a comparison, to the GTI330, the Shakespeare UGLY STIK is just a bit larger, nice smooth reel, I also manage to find a Shakespeare UGLY STIK rod 24 Kg, to match with it, special thanks again Wayne, keep well cheers Don.
I've never heard of "Ugly Stick" reel, I have Ugly Stick rods and I had a cheap'o Shakes. Tidewater years ago that looked similar. I like the thick-looking rings on the outer plates. Ha!, now I have to look it up and get details.
I was only ever beat by an ugly stick. I haves seen several Shakespeare reels and they have all been well made.

I'm with Mr. Wayne, I have a handful of Ugly Stick rods that I rely on but never knew they had reels! Always love hearing from Donnyboat and superkudos to Wayne for posting the photos! - john
