The Lake Charles store would NOT repace my broken Castaway a few years ago and I had the receipt which was only a few months old. I even talked to a manager. I have not bought another rod from Academy sence then.
I have seen other post where some Academy stores will replace a broken rod.....no questions. |

That's why I love Ugly Sticks. They are nearly indestructable. We were in our seventh season fishing with them before we managed to break the first one. When we have broken them, it has been due to such extraodinary abuse that I don't think I could ask for warranty service with a clear conscience. We've got around 20 of them now.

my buddy purchased a gloomis rod from them a couple of years ago broke 2 weeks after he had it took it back and they would not accept it said he had to send it to manufacture for replacement the mgr did give him a rod tube though
another buddy broke an all star 2 months after he had it and they replaced it with no questions so i guess it depends on the make of the rod |

Academy
Had a G Loomis rod that broke less than a year after purchase,I sent it back to manufacturer--postage was paid both ways by them BTW. New one from G Loomis sent back to me at no charge. That being said, Academy has changed their policy about broken rod returns because of abuse by certain individuals. Check with them now before a rod purchase as their return rules are not as lenient as before. Doubt Academy will give you another Castaway without receipt so maybe you can call the manufacturer directly and they may give you a new one or one for a reduced price.

Falcon is the only in store replacement rod they sell. Castaway aren't worth sending back after you pay shipping both ways and replacement charge.

Well i tried at the new Academy in Lafayette and they pretty much laughed at me and said no way. So screw em, I'm gonna go buy the same rod and wait a little while and return the broken on with that receipt.

Asterisk snapped a year-old carrot stick a few weeks back and brought it to Academy on Louisiana Ave with no receipt and they gave him a brand new one, no questions.
