I have broken 2 Lami XRA 1083 using braid during a cast of a 1.5 oz lure and a 2.5 oz lure. both were custom made by different but very reputable makers. In both instances after sending the blank in Lami refused to uphold the warranty. In one case the rod maker was standing next to me when it broke! He called them and spoke the them directly and told them exactly what happened....still no love.
I also broke a brand new lami tog rod during the fight of a tog. In this case I took a photo of the fish and broken rod (that was two weeks old) and in this case they did replace the rod.
I like the product but wish they moved to a no-questioned-asked replacement. I buy different brands now but I still have a bunch of lamis. Many rod makers are moving to a NQA breakage policy or a fixed price replacement. And I find myself moving to their gear. Funny thing is, there stuff does not break as easy. All my boat gear is mostly shimano now for that reason. You break it they give you a new one.
