Fly rod repair

[KingTwistedKidd]

I had the tip of my fly rod break, I'm wondering if its fixable, and what the price would be. It's not an expensive rod, so I'm not gonna spend a whole lot if that's what it requires. I'm also wondering if it will effect the rod much if their is a cheap way to fix it. Thanks!

Take the top section to Fish Tech and get a new "Tip Top" guide to fit the rod. Super Glue it on. You did break that much that I would think it will change the action.
Maybe find someone down the road that could wrap the tip top.

I did the same thing this summer on a Sage rod, not quite as long as yours, just the tip maybe 1/2 inch, heated up the tip pulled the the broke piece out, and it still fit so I glued it back on, seemed to fish okay, but then I went and broke it again , this time a little more dramatic, six inches off the butt section ( don't ask [] ) Having a life time warranty, they warranty it even for dummies like me. It was an older XP , and they still will replace it, apparently they still have the blanks . Hopefully I can be a little more careful with this one, they are not a cheap rod.

I just go to fish tech and they will glue it for you in great condition. The fly rod that I use for carp fishing broke on the tip when I was using on the provo river. The fish just dove under a beaver dam and then got jammed so good that I was trying to pull the fish out but no my tip broke then the tippet. Still using the fly rod for only carp fishing and I still love it.

As mentioned the tip is fairly easy to replace without much effect on casting action. I know I'm not the only one who was a few sections of rods I found and never could find the owner. That rod piece looks a little familiar. What rod is it from? Please give length, wt, and number of pieces along with brand.

FFL you pull on the line and don't put pressure on the rod when you're snagged.
