Lizards, that is one reason I haven't picked a Kistler up. My bait monkey would stop a mud hole in me if I did ;D[/quote] Well Rebasser you aren't gonna get a good review from me on the Kistler's. > I went out yesterday for the first time with them, and was pitching into the weeds/laydowns. Had a fish bust through the mat as I was dragging it to a hole, with the 7' HEAVY rod. I cast back to the new hole he made in the mat, and got bit, set the hook, and the rod snapped in 2 pieces. I still landed the fish, about 15" and really not much weeds with it > Granted I may have had a defective rod, but when you pay that kinda money you don't expect a defective rod. I will be taking the broken one back, along with the 7' MH, and replacing them with a G Loomis or a ST Croix. I've not had this happen with either of those, and as you know I put my stuff through the grinder on fishing. So I won't be buying anymore Kistler's, too bad they have a great feel to them, but I can't accept it snapping in half(broke almost at the midpoint) especially with a Heavy rod, and a 15" bass :P Lizards |

Re: I'm gonna have to strangle The Bait monkey
Lizards, Haven't you learned from my mistakes ? Never pick on a product that has such a following like Shimano & Kistler. ;D Hey I got the old Saint Crow rod out and have been fishing the daylights out of it. The Damned thing ain't quite the peice of crap I thought it was.The only reason I have it is because I wasn't going to be responsible for taking advatage of another fellow fisherman to rid my troubles of it.I am thinking of inquiring about a 7'0 MH rod In the Avid series Saint crow. Tell me I shouldn't seek therapy or something ? ;D P N J P.S. By the way I would have bet my bottom dollar that your Shimano would have failed before a Kistler rod. ;D ;D ;D

Re: I'm gonna have to strangle The Bait monkey
My bait monkey has hit a low point recently. Last time he struck my wallet went flat in a hurry. Went into Gander Mountain last summer and spent 300 bucks on whatever i could get my hands on. i bought one of those fish/depth finders that you tie onto your rod and cast out like a plug. Thing works great for those NO BOATS ponds around my area.
also discovered the flexxx baits and GULP baits. Love 'em

Re: I'm gonna have to strangle The Bait monkey
Stick-Em,
ROTFLMAO ;D Well I did take back the 2 Kistler's, and at first I think they wanted to give me a little crap about the broken one, and it being a manufacturers defect, so I should send it to Kistler. I then said I was looking at the St Croix's, and G Loomis's in the first place and their salesman suggested the Kistler. I also asked him when I bought them if I could return them, since I hadn't had these before. He said as long as they were in good condition and the cork wasn't dirty/messed up. I said I just wanted credit, because I was gonna buy the G Loomis, and St Croix. They changed the attitude immediately. Long story shrot(yeah right huh JackL). I got credit of like $457 + or - for the rods. I then got a new bill when all was said and done of $753 + or - The St Croix Heavy 7' with fast action was about $105 more, and the G Loomis 7' MH fast action was about $120 more, plus the other stuff I had to pick up :-* I came out in the negatives again. So as I was leaving the owner was my best friend I think. Gonna put the rods to the test thursday for some prefishing of our next tourney for the BFL. Man I love to fish, and love to buy fishing stuff. At least that's what the monkey keeps telling me :-X Lizards |
