lamiglas is gonna be your easiest rod to return, right over in woodland.. and the american built ones are very tough good rods. a lot of guys seem to rant and rave about the griggs rods... I fished an 8wt flyrod for about 8 days this summer and if their spin rods are anything like their flyrods I would not recomend them.. or the G loomis rods, best warranty in the business.... and also the most commonly broken tips in the business..These suggestions are precisely what I need. Anyone able to answer my question about rod choices, perhaps which brand is reliable, has a warranty without a lot of drama if I need to return a broken rod? I'm also comfortable just going with what a reputable salesperson suggests if your experiences support that.
I'd look into TFO. It's Gary Loomis's new company and rod line. Not sure what kind of warranty they have. But, I like the rods and the price is moderate. And it beats paying more for the Loomis rods.
TFO is not Gary Loomis's new company, he was paid to design some rods for them, they are not on the same level as the old G Loomis rods. His new company is call North Fork Composites and they only sell blanks. They are very expensive and are extremely high quality. They are said to be better than the old GLX rods from many people!
