Thanks. I’ve got a couple of other models. I don’t care too much for the Fuji hook keepers. Usually just hook it on the reel.
-
I grabbed one finally. Interested to see how it compares to my GLX 894.

Red label also

I have both. 853 is light t-rig/weightless senko rod for me. It would be fine for 1/4oz jigs I think. I throw the 3/8+ on GLX 894. I've even thrown small keitechs on the 853.

Abu Garcia Veritas Winch 7'11" XH for 10XD's Not going to be great for anything else.

6xd would be the biggest I would throw on it.

Didn't look at it that way but that is what I ended up doing. Should have my new rod Wednesday.

It sure makes me feel a lot better about breaking an expensive rod.
-
It was definitely my fault. I meant to make that clear in the original post. I set the hook low into the side of my boat.
-
I see my only option as the Expeditor deal. They charge me the $100 and ship the rod and I put the old rod in the new rod package and ship back. Is is there a better option I’m not seeing?
-
Or a GLX. You buy a new rod and it saves you the $100 replacement fee.
-
So it looks like with ALF you have to buy another rod of equal or lesser value and they give you the replacement rod for free. I was hoping something more along the lines of paying a little extra to upgrade. Something to think about either way.

I'll do that. Thank you!
