Last night my Lexa 400 snapped where it connects to the rod. Just put in new Cabelas HT360 rod holders, which are plastic, and I put a little pressure on the rod and it broke. Any advice?? Send it back? Take it in somewhere? I think it's a major repair.

Its left handed automatically defaulting it as defective.

Send it back for sure!

Can you post a pic? I'd just contact Diawa. It's obviously a newer reel so I would guess they would replace it.

THat should be a warranty deal as it is brand new. I would start where you bought it and see if they will swap it out if not send it back toi Daiwa.

I will post a pic after I get back from my trip this weekend. Headed to Northern WI for some serious musky fishing tonight> go figure, right before the trip it breaks. Still going to slay a 50". Thanks for the help! Makes me feel a little better!
