I would never own a Sage or other rod maker for that reason alone.
Cheers to TFO....  |
I didn't have a great experience with the TFO 7 wt. Went through about 8 of them in 3-4 years - no joke. At least twice were new rods that were sent back to me and broke on the first use...trolling, catching and landing a fish. They were always good about replacing the part and consistent about it. But, I've moved on from TFO due to the less than great quality that I've seen first hand. Maybe it was the specific rod I was using but that should not matter.
I have a 6 piece Reddington I've had all through this and it will not break. I also bought an Echo 7 wt to replace the TFO and 3 years with no issues. Both the Redd and Echo are the cheaper ones from both companies. So I think that is a valid comparison to the TFO ones that I will never buy again.
The best rod replacement policy is the ones you don't have to bother at all
