rod repair/restoration help needed

[mik01]

guys - need some advice pls...

Grandfathers fishing rod I use snapped in half yesterday - seems the wood centre just rotted.

I won't throw it away cos of its sentimental value (Pop passed away and gave me this as a gift a while back).

where can I get it repaired in the Redlands area and is it repairable? I presume it is, but who can look after it and do a good job so I can use it again and again.
Don't want to simply hang it up - he gave it to me to use it.

advice appreciated - cheers

Buds Bait and Tackle in Cleveland has a resident rod maker and repairer. That is where I get any of my repairs done.

Mate It depends on where it has broken. All rods can be repaired but whether they can be used again is dependant on where it has broken
Any repairs will limit the rods action
I can repair the rod for you but I live on the Northside, Strathpine Area
