A good fly rod comes with a good warranty. For several brands, that warranty only applies if you register the rod after you buy it.
Registration takes a few minutes. Do it the week you bring the rod home, while the receipt and serial number are in your hand.
When to register
Register within 30 days of purchase. That is the deadline for the brands below that require it, and it is a good habit for every rod. Keep your receipt either way. Every brand on this page covers the original owner, so proof of purchase matters.
Register within 30 days (required for warranty)
- Thomas & Thomas. The lifetime warranty applies when the rod comes from an authorized dealer and is registered within 30 days. Register your T&T rod

- St. Croix. Register within 30 days of purchase to access St. Croix's warranty services. Register your St. Croix rod
Register now, repair faster (recommended)
- Sage. Far Bank handles Sage repairs. A registered rod is already on file when you start a repair. Register your Sage rod
- Orvis. Pre-registering gives Orvis what it needs to start a repair sooner. You will sign in or create an account. Register your Orvis rod
No registration step: keep your receipt
These brands cover the original owner without a registration form. Your receipt is your proof, so keep it with the rod.
- Lamson. If something goes wrong, use the Lamson warranty form.
- Echo. Start a claim through Echo's warranty page.
- Moonlit. The lifetime warranty applies to the rod. To start a claim, email Moonlit support a photo of the broken section and a short note on what happened. Moonlit ships the replacement section to you, so you do not have to send the whole rod back.
How to register
- Find your serial number. It is usually printed on the rod blank near the handle.
- Have your receipt or order number ready.
- Use the link for your brand above and fill out the form.
- Save the confirmation email with your receipt.
- Take a photo of the serial number and keep it with your rod records.
