I was trying it out a week or so ago and within two hours the hook starting pitting. I was like - what the heck? Regardless I fished it out for the rest of the day. After one day of fishing this is how it looked.
The next day I emailed the folks at Aquadream. Iwas fully expectiing the "into the cyberbucket routine" and wasn't very confident that the process would work, but I figured I would try it.
With a few hours and to my suprise Capt Mike emailed me directly saying that they had received a bad batch of hooks and he would like to send a new one.
I figured the mail alone would cost him more than the hook, and was tempted to say, "No worries I got it", but I let the story pan out.
Couple days later I received a package that had a bunch of hook guards, bunch of hooks, and a cool Aquadream decal. Now that's how you handle things and retain a client.
Yeah I know it's a small item, but I was impressed enough to take to time to draft this up. It could have gone either way...move on to a new spoon manufacturer, or retain a client. He retained me as a client.For the record it did catch a nice 24" red. With the jaws and teeth of a redfish, I was pretty sure that the finish would get all scratched up, but you can see for yourself above that it looks brand new.
