I have five of their scopes and like them, I also have Bushnells and several others. I was going to look into other brands but. I had a 32 year old Leupold 1.5X5 VX-3 that was giving me problems, I sent it out to them for repairs (no cost, just shipping). Anyway they called me and are replacing it with a brand new identical scope. They totally stand by their free life time warrenty. I know its not fishing but worth mentioning. Good luck on the lake, time to pull the bow. Roland
