offshore boat rod

[bigpapamd1]

thinking of getting the uglystik tiger spinning rod
at 6'6" or 7'0" feet medium action for offshore bottom fishing. now i see this Daiwa Beefstik boat rod at 1/2 the price while getting good reviews.
my question is do any1 know the rep of the Daiwa rod and which 1 between the 2 rods mentioned would you prefer:confused::confused:

Beefsticks are as heavy as a brick, ugly stick tiger is pretty light, if your going to be fishing with it all day go with the tiger

With those choices I'd take the 6'6" Ugly stick.
I've never liked the Beef Sticks.
