Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Orvis rods/line

I don't have experience other than Orvis, I will say that their return policy seems to overstate how long it takes to get a rod back. I broke an H2 (it is my go to rod for carp, shad, bass, saltwater, steelhead etc, so it sees a lot of rough conditions) and they estimated it would take 6-8 weeks to get it back do to number of rods they had to fix. But I had it back in under 4 weeks

I'm probably jinxing myself, but I've fished my 6wt BVK for years without a problem and I'm rough on my gear.  TFO has a great return policy if it ever does break.

Folks here are giving excellent advice on this.

Here's my added $.02.... if you have a good but not super expensive, not-heirloom rod you won't fish because you you fear breaking it, rethink this. Fish it!   Or, sell or give it to one of us who will be happy to fish it until it breaks!  I agree broken rods hurt and warranty arrangements can be a hassle, but your BVK is made to be enjoyed and is a good rod. I have one in 8 that I've used for for years for bass and shad and light saltwater with zero complaints. If I break it, well it had a good life.
