think about it ,you could have spent a little more on a better rod and it would have come w/ a life time warraty ,I broke 4 of them last year and they replaced every one .We had a lammi break on a fluke last week and the guy is screwed ,he paid 225 for the rod a year ago

See if Dicks sells that rod. Buy a new one and extended warranty. Wait a week and bring back the first one.

Man Deisel- I like the way you think....let the store pay for the shipping and they can write it off. Of course, better not break the new one until you return the old one!

I think you are right on that , I picked up the fish over to the boat and I think the best way to bring them in is with a net . So in a way it was me that broke it rgmn rgmn rgmn

Rugman, Broke some Lamiglass graphite in the past few years,called up customer service,spoke to a rep. and sent them back at my expense(aprox $25-28) and they were replaced (but keep in mind they were still under one year warranty). Either way it cost us.

I'd just glue a new tip on it and spend the money on a Lamiglas, Loomis, or Tsunami.
