Fishizzle, I use worms but I'm looking to upgrade!
I was browsing online looking at some discontinued sage rod models and it appears a lot of them are coming down in price. The XP new is being sold now in the 300-400's range, a nice drop from where it was for a long time even after it was no longer their premier rod on the market or at least the newest one. On Sage's website, they say that if the rod is discontinued and cannot be repaired, they will give you a rod of similar quality. I don't think there are any rods that sage makes that come anywhere close to their XP or Z-axis -unless sage is giving me a sage one , which i doubt is what they consider of "similar quality". I was hoping someone on this board that has dealt with a broken XP or Zaxis since sage discontinued the rod could shed some light on how the replacement was handeled. I'm tempted to buy these new XP's and Zaxis rods online, but without a fair warranty/replacement policy on sage's part, these rods would only be good until broken the first time. These things happen so im cautious to buy
