I am a dyed-in-the-wool Lamiglas fan. I had a Lami break on me last week and I turned it in to Sportco, so we'll see how it goes. I am hoping they just send me a new one.

As for the All-Star rods.....I have no ties to All-star in any way, but I did try one of Gooose's All-Stars the other day and I liked the it fished. I am even thinking of getting one in the future if the right deal comes along. It may depend on how Lamiglas treats me.
