broken rod

Jim80 · 04-22-09, 04:25 PM

Well the day started with my wife needing to take the jeep for the day and me mistakenly leaving my poles in the car. Got home from work and my 7' worm rod is snapped in half , can't really blame her for it she taking the rods out of the car and tring to manage our two year old at the same time but it stings none the less

Thats never any fun, I had a buddy close the ends of three of my rods in the door of his explorer last year.

bamabassman · 04-22-09, 06:12 PM

she did it on purpose man. hahaha kidding of course, it really was the monkey who did it. he is telling you he needs more food. good luck pal. cause a new rod means more than JUST a rod ya know. tell us what ALL you get. good luck.......

Every cloud has a silver lining. In this case, you get to go buy a new rod and she can't jump up and down about it

B-I-G · 04-22-09, 10:14 PM

Yeah I once closed a car door on one of my rods.. I was so bummed

MrPhotographer06 · 04-23-09, 07:15 AM

i've broken 3 or 4 spinning rods [tips] and two baitcaster rods all but one being while fishing.

one of the baitcasters broke in the back of the truck some how

aikenyounggun · 04-23-09, 02:15 PM

it's cool I replaced it with a quantum rod 7' mh that should do the trick and I am picking up a St. Criox rod next week 1 got turned into 2 so it worked out for me . And I was able to convince the girl at the return counter at wally world that the rod was only a week old and they took it back . btw the rod was a touch over 2 years old .
