hi chade

it dependes how bad it is, is it a crack in the glaze or the rod blank
itself? Is the crack spreading around the rod. you will need to remove the
eye to see the full damage. you could try using araldite if it's a small
crack - you could you could cut it in half and insert a carbon spigot cut
from an old rod and glued in with araldite make sure it's a tight fit ( that
's if its in the bottom part of the rod) and then place a larger sleeve cut
from an older rod over the join or whip over it with whipping cotton.
however this can affect the rod action. finally you could take to a tackle
shop who do repairs and get a quote - if it's an expensive rod it maybe
worth it.

Hi Colin,

Thanks for your reply. It's a crack in the epoxy/varnish along side the ring
foot.

C.
