I miss Salmontackler.

Hmmmmm Divers? I suppose you can make a statement like that after actually tryin a rod? Could you be specific on your experiences with it? I've been fishing 1025c Allstars since last September...and no problems....I find them a superb rod...damm good b@lls on the hook set and super sensitive...I've loaned them to several fishen friends who are 10 percenters...they liked them for the same reasons. Plus as Aunty said you can get several instead of one.....I quit payen for name value long time ago. So please enlighten us? What? No? Hmmm? Hey ya like Loomis buy Loomis. BTW Joe is probably one of the finest people on this planet you will ever get to know if you tried. Nuff said.

LOOMIS WARRANTY IS GREAT IF YOU HAVE A FACTORY BUILT ROD,BUT IF ITS CUSTOM WRAPPED THEN IT DOESN'T DO YOU MUCH GOOD ,BECAUSE YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO BUY NEW COMPONENTS AND PAY TO HAVE IT BUILT AGAIN IF YOU DON'T BUILD YOURSELF

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.

Recetly i have bought 3 1141 loomis rods and all of them the inner ring of the tip has come out. I am looking for a new company to use A.K.A-th,lamiglas, or all star but i am not sure.all i know is loomis rods are crap now and i would tell them that right to there face.

c'mon super you seem like a good guy,give the hookman the apology he deserves, you vision,allstar, guys get pretty rattled when someone attacks your opions but that is what you did to him

Hmmmmm? Sky was asking the guy for specifics substantiating his claims an attack? Hey if he's got specifics he can refer us to... more power to him ? As you can see I back up my opinions with at least something more....only wish more would or could? Guess I must be an overly sensitive type .

Hey, I am sorry if I hurt someones feelings ,But I to use to be a Loomis guy until I got the opportunity with allstar.
I just think it is really sad to see a once great local company go south when bought out by a worlwide corp oration. Sure we all would have sold out ourselves, but it is just sad to see it happen.
Also it is to bad that they don't have the same policy they use too.
Peace Superfly

I guess I am the guy that you are sorry for
offending. I am that someone. Its not easy to
admit when we are wrong, but by doing so it helps us to grow. The rest of your statement was the
only comment that was proper for the warranty
tread. As a rep in the future try not to redirect
a tread in order to focus attention on a product
that you have a built in prejudice. Because its
about personal sales. This hurts your own personal
credibility as it relates to that tread. It makes
members that are not reps very irratated when our
participation is polluted with selfishness and
deceit. Why don't you start a tread asking about
the All Star Waranty? Me personally I can't comment on the All Star Warranty because they havn't been around that long and the Jury is still out. When lurking to find a tread to advocate your product be careful not to offend
the board. When one member is attacked the whole
board feels it. Enuff said. I will move on and
I hope that I am making a difference. Peace

Aunty,

You truly are their knight in shining armor.

What I ment when I say the Jury is out is just that. In my judgement I can't give a verdict on
All Star because I don't know enuff people that
use them in my fishing Circle. Why is it that we
have to expect an asault from the same old gang
or so called inner circle that seems to think the
rest of us circle in a tight orbit around their
***hole.You are not the center of this boards
fishing Universe. You are the reason that flamming
is your MO. Anyother product that you don't
endorse or profit from, the group will lurk and
then attack. Whats with that? Remember to respect
the majority of us for we are also consummers that
can see through your collective games. Remember
who was wrong in the first place and my message was ment to shed some insight. I don't expect that
I am considered the problem here. Check out your
own backyard. I Never post any derogatory treads
towards individuals I don't know on this board.
I expect the same. My common interest in about
fishing not selling a product. Take a look at what you are doing and how you are doing it. I
promise you I will not be bullied. Just let it
go and stop trying to correct me. Clean up your
own backyard. I expect to continue to be a welcome
member of this board that respects and expect to
recieve respect in this common arena. Superfly I
whish you the best. And I am over it. Just let
it be.

They're THREADS, with an "h". Treads are on tires. ****ing THREADS.

Thank you.

DJ its also judgement= judgment, asault=assault,consummers= comsumers

probably more, but i am to tired

casey

Lurk and attack. Same old crap. Seems like you did get the message. Spelling not that important
as long as the message was recieved.

i know , just giving you a hard time

And will you stop hitting the damn return/enter key? It's making your posts a pain in the ass to read...Think of the customer!!

How about ment=meant, flamming=flaming, and recieve=receive? Oh, and Casey, its "too", not "to", and "consumers", not "comsumers" Just giving equal time.

That being said, I don't normally p!$$ and moan about spelling errors, but when I am annoyed by a holier-than-thou post like the series from JLH, all bets are off.

I'm certainly not prone to flaming here, and I don't consider myself one of the "inner circle" by any stretch of the imagination. Still, I know whose posts bother me and whose don't. JLH, yours bother me, and I'll bet I'm not alone. You could stand to get on a lower horse, and please spare me the explanation that you will feel obligated to provide in defense of your posts and/or your attitude. It won't help. Thanks.

Jesse

I wish you the best with your new rod. Buying a new rod is difficult at best. Hope I have made a difference by sharing my experience.

Sorry JLH got to jump on the bandwagon, this one's for you,

Sorry goose, I have other things to do then monitor this web site 24/7. So don't be so offended or jump to conclusion if I didn't reply to ur answer on your command.

Id rather pay more for the Loomis and support them, and my local tackle shop who refuses to carry All Star. My money , I will support the company I like. My opinion is All Star sucks and that is what I had said before. No scientific data to back it up or tons of reserch. I don't care if you like All star that is your progative.
Also I dont even know Superfly and if he is a nice guy fine, I just don't like All Star, I never said he was a bad guy.
Bottom line, Jess asked a question I gave him what I thought. You have your opinion fine.

By the way, for so many people on this board that loves there All star so much and slams Loomis sure seem to be intrested in all my Loomis rods I aquired.

Also, Goose I know who you are and we fish the same tourist attraction / meat hole for them kings. I have talked to you before via email about this place on Martys BB. I thought you were a nice guy and still do but my bottom line is I think ALL Star Sucks, Loomis all the way.

PS I will see you again this year at the meat hole and introduce my self as Divers to you. I am the one who was fishing Fly only.
