Refurbishing a boo - Dryrod - 08-06-2009 [font "Comic Sans MS"][#008000][size 3]There are many boo rods on line for sale. Some carry a good label but are in need of new winding, guides, grip & a seat. Anyone have any idea as to what this may cost to do an overhaul? I browsed the Internet but couldn't find any quotes for various segments to repair.[/size][/#008000][/font] [signature] Re: [Dryrod] Refurbishing a boo - Dryrod - 08-07-2009 [font "Comic Sans MS"][#008000][size 3]Finally found a site that lists repair prices.

Really don't have the patience any more for detailed work. Tying flies is enough for me. But thanks for the site. Maybe we can get Mac to do it in his spare time.[/size][/#008000][/font] [signature] Re: [macfly55] Refurbishing a boo - flygoddess - 08-07-2009 Love that JUNGLE COCK! [signature]
