Craig is amazing-- he just "gets" it! Saved my late Fall when he called the factory & told them to ship me replacement bolts when I popped the shaft of my 250's handle in Nov. Had TWO new ones waiting for me 3 days later after I called him... both of which I needed, as I popped another (new) bolt one day in late Nov. after C & R'ing 45 big bluefish & medium bass! With the last bolt keeping my VS alive, I did 12 bass from 21- 28.5 lbs. on Dec. 5 & 6 & lost a brute to a straightened 3/0 VMC 4x treble...
Not blaming VS handle- pins really (though they are surprisingly thin at the connection- point to the reel)... I'm an old- school mono.- only Surf guy... looking always/ "only" for my "50"... & I set up harder than most, I guess?
