does not seem to be as generous as they once were with the service replacement on the stellas. They upgraded me on a reel that would have cost a ton to repair. (it was used hard for 10 years but serviced every year) The upgrade was 60% of the new cost. It use to be no charge in the past. And they have treated me very well. Times must be getting tough for them too.

I was going to get a 20000 for a tuna spin rod, may try that new diawa instead.

Hmmmm. I am a little bummed.
