Defective Product Warranty
All rods are covered from damage that occurs during normal fishing conditions as a result of craftmanship or material defects. While this is very rare, we do understand it can happen. All rods covered under this warranty will be replaced free of charge. You must register your rod within 30 days of purchase to be eligible (starting 2/15/2022).
Please note: Boat flipping, snagging, high sticking, and other misuse and abuse is not covered under defective product warranty.
Accidental Replacement Warranty
Accidents happen. For rod damages not covered under the defective product warranty, 6th Sense offers a replacement program for a new rod. We simply require a one-time payment for a replacement (plus return shipping costs). Here is the cost of replacement for each rod series:
Rod Series | One-time Cost | Return Shipping |

For all warranty claims, the following requirements must be met:
-
Owner must be the original owner
-
Proof of purchase required
-
Broken rod guides are not covered (guides can typically be replaced for less than the cost of return shipping)
-
The customer is required to pay for return shipping costs to our facility
- Please reach out to customer service for accidental replacements quotes on the 6 Customs Series of rods.
To initiate the claim, please complete the form below. The damaged rod must then be shipped to the following address:
If necessary, the rod can be sectioned to save on shipping costs; however, we must be able to clearly see the damaged area of the rod as well as the 6th Sense logo and model in order to correctly disposition the incident.
Upon receipt of the rod, we will perform an internal inspection to verify the claim. You will be contacted with 10 business days after receipt of your rod.
