I don't care if its natural those are rots in the cork that piece should have never been used at least for a 250.00 rodbstuckey wrote:Pegasus wrote:Ok
I don't know how to link a page to this post but if you go on tackle warehouse look at the picture of the Champion line
the Randy McAbee cranking rod to be specific and look at the cork handle Mr. Dobyns speaks about super quality AAA cork for these
rods then he sends this kind of specimen to tackle warehouse, what a joke this is a 250.00 rod yea I was hoping this
post was over but when I hear these kind of comments !
Can't help myself, keep digging.
He made a video saying Super AAA cork obviously its not I like my rods to be perfect for that kind of money wouldn't you?
FYI I have falcon Cara Micro granted the handle is split but the cork is super clean my St.Croix Avid priced 65.00 less than Dobyn Champions is extremely super clean and so is my Slop-and Frog rod.
And of course when you call Customer service they are apologetic and it shouldn't never happen yea lack of quality
control that is why it happened.
Yes I consider that a quality issue but more of an issue from Dobyns with that "well lets put it out there if somebody complains we will fix mentality " that that is not good Customer Service in my book.
