Well thanks for all your comments. I've decided to go ahead and plunge into a Loomis G2. I have 2 Lamiglass', and have nothing bad to say about them at all. I went with a Loomis this time because none of the Lamiglass' that I've seen just don't feel like they would make real nice steelhead drifting rods. Now I know I'm going to get some hurt for saying that, but after 'jiggling' a bunch of Lamiglass' and Loomis', I decided to give Loomis a shot.
As for the warrenty, we'll see how Loomis does, if they do me wrong, well, they can loose a customer for life. Lamiglass however, those are some good people. I bought a Chinook Special about 2 years ago, and being the 'rock-jumper' that I am, I jammed the tip into a rock and broke it off about 3 months ago. Took it up to Washington, and they built a new top-section for my poll for FREE...well, less shipping cost. Can't complain about that one bit smile
Anyways, thanks again...good fishing all!
