Re: Loomis completly changes their xpedite warranty service

There is still the lifetime warranty on the rods. The Xpeditor was created for rods that are broken outside of warranty parameters. $100 is still cheaper than buying a new rod. Still not cheaper than $50. Or even $40 like other companies. I doubt they will jump up %100 like Loomis. Shimano stops gi...

Re: Crawdad pot/trap?

Ken, You can make your own very cheap out of chicken wire. There are a ton of write ups and even videos on yourtube. Just be sure when you put your bait in the trap keep it suspended in the middle of the trap or most cradads will not enter the trap.
