ProAngler Tackle crapy rod broke - 01/23/20 10:46 PM

i was casting a 3/16 chatterbait for crapy at my nabor's tank and SNAP, the 8 ft crapy rod broke between the 1st and 2nd eye...i emailed ProAngler Tackle and after some discussion, he sent me a free replacement, saying that was a weird place to break...and i agree...i also have a 10 ft crapy rod, but only use it with a slip cork...take a look at their website www.proanglertackle.com/

If they replaced it what’s the issue?,I don’t own any of their rods but have only heard good things about them,don’t know as I have ever thrown a chatter bait for crappie(roadrunner maybe)but I would probably not be using a spinning rod for that.

The rod was almost certainly damaged earlier. A car door is a good possibility.

I don’t think he has an issue, rather he was taking the opportunity to speak well about their customer service.
