User questions & answers

Question:	hi i bought a fishing rod 2018 and i broke the top how can i change thx
Answer:	Buy another rod and take better care of it. Take your broken rod to someone who builds and repairs rods and they’ll either replace the broken section or put a new tip on it and you’ll have a slightly stiffer second rod good for salmon or catfish.
Question:	what weight rod Tica 12’0” medium
Answer:	Tica rods run HEAVY. Whatever the line/lure rating, assume it is heavier than another comparable rod.
Question:	hi if im broken rod I have a guarantee or not txh
Answer:	Contact the manufacturer; they may replace it if the damage was due to faulty material or workmanship. If it broke because of your negligence, it shouldn't be covered. Learn to take better care of your gear.
Question:	what is the lure weight this will cast. Is there anything printed on the pole
Answer:	1/2 to 1 3/4 oz.

User questions & answers

Question:	What's the total weight of the 8'6" MH rod and which is best out of the 3 8'6" rods for 1oz lures
Answer:	Not sure of total weight, but it's light. I use the SST-S-862MH for casting 7/8oz mepps flying C's for river salmon... rod is rated for 3/8 - 1 1/2oz lures and 10-20lb line. For 1oz lures, I would stick with the MH rod... the M and ML may be a bit soft for repeatedly flinging 1oz lures... but I would bet they would make great stealhead rods.
Question:	The picture of the handle on this rod looks like a casting handle. Is it in fact a spinning handle without the trigger finger grip? Thanks
Answer:	It's a spinning rod. the distributor gets images from the manufacturer and we get them from the distributor. Sometimes the number if images we are enabled to use is minimal. There's no trigger.Thanks,UCG
Question:	castinThe modle # SST-S-902MH is for a spinning rod but the picture is a g rod, if I was to order what rod would I receive
Answer:	You will receive the SST-S-902MH. Great rod. Never had any problems with it.
Question:	What the line rating on the sst 902Mh
Answer:	the 902mh has a line rating of 10-30 lbs.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this 4-section fly rod come with the sturdy looking case that is shown with it in the first picture
Answer:	Mine did, but I had the option to select just the rod, or rod and case
Question:	Reel constantly comes loose. Do you need pliers to tighten it down
Answer:	I have a redington 5/6 reel on the rod. I hand tighten before every outing but never have had it slip while fishing.
Question:	Any chance this is made in usa? i had to order a replacement tip for my picifun 5wt and it took 4 1/2 weeks to receive it ftom china. $15 shipping
Answer:	I really don't know. I haven't used mine yet. I would expect it came from China!
Question:	Is there a warranty on this rod
Answer:	I don’t believe there is a warranty. Not sure if you would want a warranty because it just adds cost to the price of the rod. Also after you catch two or three fish it’s basically value for the money. If you want a warranty, buy two and you will have spare parts.
