The Rapala guys came up to the lodge years back with 12 of their “new mooching rods”, reels and rain gear.
They left with 6 rods, other 6 snapped trying to pop them out of clip. The reels were fraying line as fish ran from burrs on them and the brand new rain gear I snagged a set of leaked at the seams.
I have caught an albacore on one of their weird plugs though.
