Another thing to keep in mind is Phenix's rod replacement program, which is very generous IMO. If you break a rod for any reason (as far as I know) you can pay the replacement fee and get another. To replace an Iron Feather it's $120 and for the Elixer and Mirage it's only $50. Obviously if a rod breaks for reasons covered in the warranty that's different and you won't be charged. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it's spelled out pretty clearly on their warranty page: http://www.phenixrods.com/index.php?...age=page&id=16

Phenix stands behind their product. I had a guide insert pop out and simply brought the rod in and they gave me a new rod on the spot... No charge.

If you break it and it's your fault, you pay a small replacement fee and get new rod, if it breaks for a reason due to some other defect, they replace it for free.

I have the 7'9" and it really is an amazing rod.

I should mention that the guide insert popped out of an Elixer, not the Iron Feather.

Oh and, yafool, sorry this thread turned into a debate about Phenix rods ;) If I didn't have other financial obligations I would be thinking of buying those off you.

I like all 6 of mine no problems at all.

I've got a 7'9" one piece and seen zero errors with it in the breakage department for what it's worth.

you haven't heard the feather weak, their to thin on the tip,hey phenix is returning all the money back, i know this because i broke 2 rods on fish, return for full refund, im so piss off the iron feather is junk.

i am very curious why and how you broke "2 iron feather" on fish . yes they are thin on the tip, but if you spent that much hard earn money for them, would you take very care of them, and if you broke one why you broke
another one. and you RETURN FOR FULL REFUND? i do know Phenix has policy for broken rods. not like you said
got FULL REFUND????????............. just my 2 cent.
