Well, first I retrieved my Loomis from my rod rack/stand to go do a little evening fishing when the top 12 inches broke off in my hand.  I have no clue how this happened.  I'm so upset...PSSSSD OFF, MAD, ANGRY and feel like   .  

I grabbed another rod and went storming out of the house pouting like a little .  

I tried taking an action picture of this bass jumping out of the water but had a hard time timing it.  I ended up losing it while fumbling with the camera.  She was probably 4-5 pounds.

I got this one just a few moments later but waited till I landed her before breaking out the camera.

I was using a Fluke in the Arkansas Shiner color.

I returned home and contacted G-Loomis via the internet and will have a new identical rod on my doorstep by the end of the week for $50.00...

The wife was kind enough to bake me chocolate chip cookies to help ease the pain.

Sorry about the rod, but at least you got cookies.

Thanks Jason,  But now I feel sick from eating all of them.

It has a lifetime warranty, you send em $50 and they send you a brand new rod, no questions asked.

Too bad you couldn't get the action shot...that would have been sweet.
