I broke a rod in transport to the RoadTrip at Guntersville in April.

The following week I contacted the Service Department at St. Croix

to replace an original Legend Elite. The series has been updated

at least three times since my old rod was built.

My new rod is a LES70MF which cost $85 all in ($75 for replacement,

$10 Fed Ex). There was a bit of delay simply because this rod is brand

spanking new from the builders. So, yesterday it arrived!

Nice!!! I had the opportunity to use a friends this weekend. One hell of a rod Kent!!!

Thats really cool!

I"m going through the same with Loomis. Somehow I broke a GLX up at St Clair back in mid may.

Ive sent in a broken Avid on a Satuday and by Thursday evening had Avid back in hand St Croix is pretty good to deal with.

Just had the opportunity to fish the rod last weekend...

SWEET!
