Rod Repairs

Examples broken and damaged rod guides

My rod repair service caters for rods from all disciplines of angling dealing with the simplistic replacement of a tip guide through to the more complex work of removing a worn cork or foam grip and rebuilding the handle with a modern carbon light-weight reel seat. Line guides are manufactured from a variety of materials and come in twice as many patterns. Whilst every effort is made to match the new work to the old, availability of older guide patterns is sometimes very limited. The images in this section give an example of the type of damage that can be experienced with rod guides
