Kistlers rods
 

I bought a 6"9 rod from kistler fish with one time set the hook on a fish and it broke in the middle of the rod. I used the rod one time and it broke called kistler they said that they would replace it for 70 bucks . What kind of warranty is that .

Those are some nice high dollar rods...I used one with helium filled in the blank...extreme light...but to rich for my taste

thats no warranty at all they're selling another rod to you at wholesale price instead of retail. Obviously there was some defect in the rod if this is a true story, Rod warrantys are a joke, shimano has a no questions asked, in store, swap for a new rod warranty on some of there high end rods, and Falcon has has replaced some caras at no cost for some guys that I fish with. I know St. croix has given me the same "deal" instead of a warranty for my rod breaking. I've read the run around with castaway too!

Skeeter what model Kistler rod broke on you, I am looking to try the new
Z-bone Model

U gotta b kidding me W??!!
There ain't helium n the damn rod!!!
It's called a helium bc of it's lightness...... Lmao
NASA employee of the month??

The only thing filled with helium is Ur head......
Go to Kistler website and read.

You can't turn loose to unhook a fish....it'll float off. :cool:

Lmao I wasn't going to say anything but since Chris said it... I promise that rod wasn't helium infused...

i had one and broke it on 2nd trip with it and called for repair and they told me to send them 70 bucks, i ll go back to shimano.

You forgot to add shipping to and from the factory.
Might as well chunk it and buy a good one.

I had the same issue with All Star Rods. Except it was $50 instead of $70.

Shimano is all i fish with for 2 reasons. I love the way they perform and the warranty

Must of been refurbished! Jusy kidding

W..... No response??

Hey I don't know a damn thing about the rods,,,,the guy who had them in my boat told me this...I never been to the website....he said it had helium filled blanks.....it was light and he said coast about 400bucks.....

Thats funny

:rolleyes::shaking::shaking::shaking::*****:SURE HE DID!!!

I sure am hungry for some CRAWFISH!!!!!!!!
Lmao x 10000000000
Maybe u should have said that Ur buddy told u that in the first post.

i have one of their magnesium rods and i love it

What part of I used one you don't understand??? Never said I bought one, had one,,,said I used one.... So only way I can use one would be for someone else to have it??? Right??? Try again

Ur missin the point.... I don't know *** u are arguing on that last post.... Lol
My point was that u made a completely redicilous comment about a rod. Regardless of if Ur friend told u or not..... It's absurd to actually believe that helium.... A gas that floats objects would b used inside of a rod..... Lmao!!!!
That fact that u believed that enough to post it on here just Cracks me up.

Why could you knot use it? A light dose would not float a rod!!! Use your brian,,,you think if you filled at gas tank with helium the truck would float???? No....this is not far fetch to add a shot of helium into a. Blank and make it lighter!!! 5 cc of helium would not float a rod..sorry you can't understand that

First off... It's " not" learn to spell.
2 I'm not even gonna argue with mr wizard. U are so caught up n bn right it's redicilous. The original arguement was that helium was or was not it the rod.... NOT the possiblity of putting helium n a rod. For once stay on topic.
Admit u were wrong, and next time u want to educate people about a topic do urself and the rest of us a favor and read about it. Ur bogus statement are becoming redicilous and makin u look completely unbelievable as a source of information.

I have the GOLD SERIES.....I was wondering why it was soooo heavy. A buddy of mine fishing with me told me the blank was filled with GOLD!!:cool:

Lmao x 10000000000
Say something stupid....... Blame it on Ur buddy!!!

ASSR, that was funny as hell, my friend!!!!!!

That is what BUDDIES are for.....:D

Fictional "buddies".

I figured ya'll would like that one....:)

Most of W's rods are like him....full of ****.

Ptff.....I was never trying to educate any one about the rod.... Stop adding your non Since to my statement,,,, I said it was a good rod and I used one,,,,and I was told they had helium in the rod!!!!! Never educated one thing in that statement,,,so don't try to make it that away,,,,just because your trying to look like a rod god...your not....I never said a thing but what I experienced with the use of trying one out!!!! You and your Side Kick ASR just try to make it sound like purchased them and used them...which was not what I said at all!!! You want rod education get a Waterloo and drop the 3rd tier rod skeleton

Salty,,,,,still waiting for you to go list the weight of those trout,..,,since your the only expert who thinks there not what we said.....please make an azz out of your self and list the weights

Lmao x 100000000
"Da nile" ain't just a river n Egypt W.

A few years back I fished 2 Oilman's Tournaments in Toledo. When u registered they gave u a free Kistler rod. Don't remember the models. The first one I got my dad broke the tip. (don't remember how, never tried to return it) The second one I got, I traded Asterisk for one of his Cast Away rods. :smokin:

I may be wrong but i believe you need to take some of your advice and look up "redicilous" unless you are trying to be funny, in which case it did not appear so and I apologize

Re
 

Apology accepted:)

I just talked to a guy who builds rods.... He gave me a new blank that waterPOO is using..... Said that he buys it for 80$ but waterPOO lists it @ 200$..... I told him something didn't smell right about that.
He then told mr that waterPOO fills the blank with methane gas...... That's the reason for the higher price!!!

U lie!!!!!! What's his name? And who does he work for...and list his number if he sells rods!!!

James brown
Backcountry Custom Rods Franklinton, la
1-800- big-stix

Probably the same guy that told you HELIUM was in the blank.....:*****:

I have to agree Waterloo is far superior to castaway skeleton.

Good... I'm sending this to Waterloo

w knows an expert that is a lawyer and doctor, they said that they know for a fact that waterloo does not over charge at all, and that they know for a fact w knows everything about helium

imagine that, W gets in trouble my shimano,

so he turns around and whistle blows on someone else

James has been out of business for years. I smell B. S.

well this is why

Everyone has an opinion. I'll put the Light Action Skeleton up against any Waterloo. Castaway has been first in multiple categories when it comes to rods, (split grip, microguides, microwave guides, etc)they just don't have the marketing budget to go along with it. A rod they built (for another company) won top prize three years running at ICast... Waterloo is a great rod, but not far superior!

Plus the Skeleton is made with real Pilgrim Skeletons in the blank:p

:*****::*****:

Are you sure or did someone fishing with you tell you this:confused:
