Had an Ugly stick snap years ago mate on a big fish off Karratha. Got a brand new one no questions asked. You'll probably need the receipt.

try!
Mines a few years old, hammered it and no probs.
Try for warranty and they're normally very good to deal with. Tell them it snapped on a fish but, dont say you were snagged.....they know reef will always win over rod and warranty void!

The Ugly bluewater's are great rods, and normally have no problems with them snapping, Take it to where you bought it and you should'nt have too much trouble getting warranty.
