I would take a look at what locals use and stick with that. Around here that would probably be conventional All Star or Arra rods. Though everybodies a bit different.
I've not seen one of the cork wraped ugly sticks, but if it's the regular blank I'd look at the Tica/Tsunami/Okuma first to stay in the same price range... I think they may have a better action for plugs.
