let me know how it turns out i just want to get a new tip and the other eyes need re binding....where and what type of fishing are you into cutter
Do it yourself, its not to difficult. Theres plenty of sites on the web that show you how. I recently redid all the guides on one of my rods easy. Its not pretty or anything flash but the guides are straight and solid. I got my supplies from springwood marine.
I agree with Jeremy87. Replacing guides is a snap. Especially the tip top. Most likely, it's held on with common ferrel cement. Just hold a match to it until the glue inside melts and pull it off. Then melt a little cement on the clean tip and replace with your new guide. It takes about a minute and is waaaay cheaper. I hardly ever buy new rods for this reason. I usually just buy a rod blank and do all the guides myself for a sharp, custom look. Really, it's a lot easier than you'd think. Just my two cents.
Here's a site I found that goes through the whole process of building a rod start to finish. The link takes you to the page describing wrapping your own guides.
thanks for the info ...i know its no super hard its a case of time and wanting my rod looking good as its was one i got made but andy oar and the rod well its one of those rods you what i'm saying
Theres a tackle store on McCulloch st at Sunnybank that does Rod repairs. Had one repaired there and was a good job and not expensive. Not sure of the name of the place, Pro Tackle or something like that.
