MAINE - Life in the Slow Lane
I like that idea Lee.
To make it usable we may need to set some sort of standard or naming convention.
Perhaps start the post title with the company name followed by Good - Bad - Neural.
I would thik it might also be helpful to name names in the posts, that way if you find a very helpful CSA you can ask for them by name.
We might even be able to start a resource document that lists the company, contact info (e-mail, phone) and a "star" rating (or trout if you prefer)...kind of a prefered vendor's list.
Saw an article today about 5 weights on "George andersons Yellowstone Angler" website. Never been to the site before, but in the article it lists warranty terms for a number of rod manufacturers. Sorry to hear about your rod. About a decade ago I broke my Hardy LRH reel that my Dad gave me as a teenager and I was pretty heartbroken as well - especially since I broke it when I slipped on a rock while looking at a young lady in a bikini!
Thanx I go got the replacement tip section & I must be clumsy as I broke it too, just ordered another one today
No way . Man you run have across some bad luck with that rod . Geeze hope your luck turns around with the next one.
Yeah, I've turned into a complete idiot it seems. & that rod is a Fish Catchin Machine too
Time to sacrifice a chicken over a fire of four leaf clovers!
Sorry to hear about your run of bad luck, perhaps things will now turn around for you.
Yeah just got my 2nd new rod tip section yesterday, I'm gonna be more than careful with it 
Glad you had a good experience with them Rudy, like I said we need to start a pinned thread of company experiences, be they good or bad.
See Yah
