St Croix legend silver

[MNfisherman57]

I just picked up a st croix legend silver today and the last eyelet on the rod is spinning around the rod... is this normal or cause too potentially contact St.Croix? Any input greatly appreciated!

call them

[Bartb]

Not normal at all. Call them, they will take care of you.  I love my st. Croix rods!

[MNfisherman57]

Thank you I will call first thing in the morning!

[Bartb]

With that said, I'd be pulling it off and putting a dab of epoxy on it and fishing...but that's just me.

I would call them and have it done right.  They will take care of you.  If you absolutely need a rod in the mean time, buy an HT el-cheapo for $8.00.  I love my Legend Silvers also.

Thank you! I've got other rods just thought I'd treat myself to a St.Croix! Was hoping to use it this weekend but I guess I can wait!

Just put a tiny drop of super glue in there. Itll work forever.

[MNfisherman57]

Called st Croix they told me to glue it or I could send it to them so they could glue it... I'll save the time and glue it myself

Its normal, thats so you can rotate the eyelet to remove line tangles.....

[MNfisherman57]

I don't know St.Croix said glue it...

[Bartb]

I don't know St.Croix said glue it...

what did they say to use?

[MNfisherman57]

what did they say to use?

they said they use crazy glue

[Bartb]

they said they use crazy glue

hmm...well....I have done that to a non st. croix rod and its been fine. 

your mileage may vary

Its normal, thats so you can rotate the eyelet to remove line tangles.....

and when bluegills like to swirl in circles.  really neat feature.

How about hot melt rod tip glue?

Caught about 20 crappies tonight on the new rod... So I think the glue did its job!
