Broken guide

[Bob Parsons]

The eye at the tip of my flyrod broke. Do flyshops carry these? And where do you suggest?

Scotty has them at the Bear's Den, you could swing in on your way down to the Cape.

Did the blank break? Or just the tip top? If the blank DID NOT break, that's a good thing. You can scrape off the epoxy below the tip top, and gently heat it and it should come off. Take it with you to the Bear's Den to get the proper size.

PM me offline if you need any help with this, I'll be happy to help you. If it needs a new wrap and epoxy I can do this for you too...

Thanks although I read the reply too late to hit them on the way down to the cape.

I've replaced tips on spinning rods so this will be the same, heat and replace, just need the right size.
