Nipped out of the house tonight for a few hours on the rocks in front of me. Rigged up with a chart and white clouser made a few casts then clunk!. Clouser hits the top section on the rod on the back cast and I now have a 4 piece Scierra blue water instead of the factory supplied 3 piece. Time to find out how good the lifetime guarantee is.

Back to the old leeda rod for a while, typical what with the weather finally improving etc.

All lifetime guarantees should cover it, its usually no questions asked, even if you break it in a car door (d'oh! :shock: ) they'll replace the section thats broken... breaking it while using it fishing will definitely be covered...

Yea was no prob, took it back to the shop I got it from and had a replacement tip section in a few days with no questions asked, great job all round.

No clousers since!
