There was a previous incident (several yrs ago) where a bad batch of blanks on some models of BnM rods did occur ... but, from my recollection, those rods/tips were replaced by BnM at no charge. I don't, however, believe those bad rods were PST's.
As "G" has suggested ... if you call BnM, ask to speak to Jack Wells (and only him) and tell him you're a Crappie.com member and explain the situation. If you speak to a "representative", you're likely to be told that replacement parts are available
(but, don't get mad at them ... they're just doing their job).
Be told to use a dang net on a 10 inch fish, NOT!!!!
