B&M ceramic eyes

[Charger]

Was fishing today and noticed the ceramic gone out of one of the eyes on a new 14 ft Pro Trolling rod. I thought I had read where B&M stated they had gotten a bad batch or something. Anyone heard this?

Yes there was a post about a batch of bad glue and eyes falling out with some of the Bn'M rods,I would contact Bn'm and let them know.

I take the tips of EVERY b-n-m rod to the rod smith and have him replace the tips before I ever use them, as almost always will they fall out.

I wish I could find a rod smith. Got a trash barrell in my garage full of various types of broken crappie poles.

I BUY THE ROD TIPS AND HOT GLUE. THE BROKEN RODS ARE FIXED WITH 2 TON CLEAR EPOXY AND BROKEN ROD PARTS IN THE JOINTS.
