A difective fishing pole

13 Fishing - A difective fishing pole

The eye lid on my pole broke off when I was casting and is shaving my line making it much weaker and causing my line to brake more easily and because of that I'm loosing luers.

Sent n my reel over 5 wks ago. Never heard from them.

Called and was hung up on. Then when I did reach someone, they knew nothing. That was 2 wks ago.

They are to hard to reach, this is bad customer service. Just send me a new A3, and were good.

Where's my A3?

They have my reel in for repairs, and I have never heard from them. It's going on 2 months.

I wouldn't recommend them in the future. It's too hard to communicate with them.

Nothing fish13 does not offer part. Other forms of products have to offer service parts. Will be looking at other brands and selling all my fish 13 and never buying anything from rapala.

Broken rod

Says the number I called is disconnected. I tried to send some pictures.

Hopefully you got them. Its very hard to get in contact with you. I have purchased many items from 13 fishing. This is the first time Ive had a problem.

I have a broken widow maker ice rod that broke right before the second eye yesterday railing in a pan fish.

Im hoping that I could get this replaced. Thank you.

I need to return a bad rod

The inside of one of the eyes is bad; it's cutting my line. When I reel or cast, it just shreds the line. Will you fix it, please?

Drag doesn't work on my new origin R1 bait cast reel

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Spooled my baitcast reel and tried to set the drag. There's no drag.

Spools freely.

Any idea as how to set the drag ? I have several bait casters and I'm very familiar with how to set the drag, so I'm thinking the reels bad

Very disappointed. With all the items l have bought through years the customer service is a joke!

Have a number to talk to somebody live. No excuse for it. We all spend to damn much money on their products.

We had a fish on, and it snapped at the end. We are wondering if we can get a replacement for it. I think it is the blackout model.

Excellent customer service

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I have a 13 Noodle Ice Pole. The cork and the bottom had fallen off, so I contacted them to see if I could get another piece of cork.

They said they don't sell that, but they offered to replace the whole rod. I thought that was very nice. I told them I could not return it because they would tell me it was more abuse and neglect. One of my clients last week stepped on the rod in the fish house and broke the tip on it.

I cut the tip off by 4 inches. They still said, 'Send it back, we'll take care of it'. I thought that was very nice of them. They wouldn't have to do that.

I'm opting not to send it back.

It's more important to be catching fish right now than mailing things back and forth to a company. Anyways, I think they're great.

Issues with gift Creed 13 3000 spinning reel

I was using my Creed 13 3000 spinning reel for the first time on 12/20/24, and it experienced technical/performance issues. I had to stop using it.

Can you all send me a postage-paid shipping label?

Can you check and service my reel? It was a gift from my daughter from Dick's Sporting Goods, and I do not have the receipt!
