new end on ultralite rod
I posted this thread once but didn't get any answers. I think I put it in the wrong category. Anyway I broke the tip off of my 6'6" Quantam Ultralite and was wondering if I cut it down to the next eyelet and bought an eyelet to cap the end with, if it would hurt the integrity of the rod. Does it still peform correctly?
RE:new end on ultralite rod
I have always just put a tip (bought at walmart or like store) on the broken part. The problem is buying the right size. Last time I took it to Dons custom rods in Tacoma and had him do it. I had a couple to do and he did a great job.
Look for Wannafish A Lure on FaceBook
He said, “Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some.” When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish.

If you take it back to the next guide you will end up with a heavyer action.
