Back in August, I wrote a post about the tip of my Orvis Clearwater rod breaking. You can click here to view the post but here is the gist of it: I got a heck of a deal on a 10 foot, 4 weight Orvis Clearwater from Cargo Largo in Independence, Missouri. The second time that I took the rod out, the tip (below the second guide from the top) broke off. I paid $60 as part of the lifetime warranty and was told that I would be receiving my ne tip section in the mail by October 1.
Fast forward to December, and my rod tip finally arrived. I am thrilled to have my rod back in working order and I don't fault Orvis at all. I wish the fee was less and of course I wish this could have been fixed sooner, but I also understand the way that things like this are working right now. Some things are in short supply and back-ordered and I get that. Under "normal" circumstances, I would be livid but during these "challenging" times, I think everyone deserves a little more patience. I'm just glad that my rod is back to working and can't wait to chase some fish with it soon!
