No Fault, No Hassle Lifetime Warranty

Fly fishing can be a rough sport, especially on your rod. Between rocks, trees, car doors and your buddy's size 12 feet, rods can be easily damaged.

​

That's why when you purchase a San Juan Rodworks rod, you get a LIFETIME warranty with one of the most competitive fee structures in the industry.

 

The Gunnison, The Fryingpan and The Conejos Rods

Rather than going through the hassle, expense and time it takes to have you send in your entire rod, we will simply send you the section that needs replaced.  Here's the process to follow: 

1. Choose your rod, length, weight and section that needs to be replaced from the items below.

2. Email a picture of the broken section to info@sanjuanrodworks.com along with the name, shipping address and order number from your original rod purchase.

3. Pay the warranty fee and we'll get the section you need out to you ASAP. Generally items ship by the next business day.
