5.0 out of 5 stars High quality light-duty surf rod, September 17, 2008

By 

Furbait "FB" (Central Coast, CA USA) - See all my reviews

The Lamiglas Surf King SK9MS is built light and tight. It's a good rod for casting 1/4oz.-2oz. lures on 10#-12# mono. It has a medium-fast action tip and can only safely support a load of about 3.0#, so it should not be used with heavy line or to cast more than 2oz. total (bait + sinker). This rod has a very light handle, so it's tip-heavy, which can be balanced by wrapping 4-5oz. of electrical solder around the base of the handle and securing it with cement. The SK9MS is quite sensitive and is very good for casting light lures long distances on light line for long periods of time. If you're looking for a light-duty surf rod, this one is an excellent value!

1.0 out of 5 stars WARNING- MADE IN CHINA, January 20, 2012

This review is from: Lamiglas Surf King Spinning Rod, 9', 2-Piece, 10-17 Line WT, 5/8-2oz Lure WT., Mod/Fast Action (Sports)

I have a decent collection of fishing rods, mostly G-LOOMIS which are made in the USA. I liked the lightweight feel of this LAME-iglas rod so I purchased one of these surf-king rods 4 years ago and I rarely used it. I may have used it about 13-14 times here on the Monterey Bay coastline fishing for stripers.
One morning I hooked into a decent sized fish and the rod tip snapped causing my line to fray and cut. Needless to say I lost the fish.
I recently sent the rod to LAME-iglas and they said the rod only had a one year warranty and they wanted to charge me $45 for the repair.
After speaking to their "customer service" representative he advised me that LAME-iglas rods are made in CHINA. I was shocked and appalled. I will NEVER EVER buy this chinese made garbage again and I will warn all other fisherman to buy only quality American made G-LOOMIS rods.
