i do agree that many manufacturers want to sell disposable stuff but I will not give in to the idea that that is the best way to do business.

EXACTLY my point in the beginning,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
look at the market share that VS is enjoying.
COSTS more, but lasts a lifetime. and many VS guys own
more than one of those babies
much BETTER way to do business, imho.
GS Loomis/Lamiglass is going to be my next two or three rods,
i only regret that i didn't go with them sooner. i've gone thru
two Wally Worlds, and two TICAS en route to what will hopefully
be my last rods EVER, and ones that i can hand down to my daughter/nephews/neices
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,along with sum PENN's or VS's.
hopefully they'll still be in the surfbidness and there will still
be a healthy stock biomass for them to harvest/C&R when it
becomes their turn to enjoy NE's finest recreation.
