Default 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 .

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!

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

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.

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.
