G-Loomis Rod Servicing?

Featured Replies

Howdy! Maybe a dumb question...

 

I get my Shimano and Daiwa reels serviced once a year or so and I'm wondering if G-Loomis does the same thing for rods? Over the years I know some of the blanks have gotten bent and I've had to put them back as best as I could figure, and the top tip blank on two of the rods has come off that I've had to glue back on.

 

Will G-Loomis look at the rods and put the blanks back in line if they're off? Will they inspect each one to make sure they're not coming apart and replace the top ones? I'm not even sure if rod servicing is a thing?

If your blanks are bent the rods are garbage unless you stored them bent.

 The term is "eyes" not blanks. The one on the end is a "tip top".  The "blank" is the rod itself.

G. Loomis does not service rods.

Loomis will probably replace them if you pay the fee for their replacement plan.
