graphite Fly Fishing Rods
How can I fix a graphite fly rod broken?
At a rally, my graphite fly rod split up. Fit enough peace right to strike, but I'll take something if I have a big fish … or even repeating patterns. Is it possible to fix it, perhaps glue and a key or something right?
Almost all major manufacturers of fly rod now offers a number of repair requests unanswered / Replacement policy. Normally charge $ 20-40 shipping and handling. Therefore, I contacted the manufacturer first and see this ad. Not repaired, more likely it is that you provide with a new section of the cone bar similar. repairs to the Council, especially reeds, is a poor solution. You lose uninterrupted power transfer needs a fly rod and has a weak point that will break again at some point on the line. If you need make repairs, cut the two sections in the rest so there is no protruding fibers. A fine blade or a scroll saw should do the trick. Check if the section is smaller the larger section. If not, readjust the largest section in small increments until you can get a perfect fit, with the top of at least 1 / 4 "below. Put some epoxy on top, put into play, align, clean the excess epoxy and let dry. Once dry, plastic screw section of the bar, and sealed with a layer of good son. Tight lines!
