Cabela's generally has great customer service. Unless they are visibly thrashed, I'd be surprised if they don't replace them. I sent in a Cabela's brand pack rod without a receipt that snapped at the guide wrap after years of use and they credited me with the estimated retail value of the rod. On a side note, my Cabela's brand waders that I got for Christmas also seem to be leaking in the seat. I plan to send them in sometime soon and don't anticipate any trouble.
