broken rods
last year i broke like 3 rods one of em being a brand new techspec there all broke right above the 2nd eye so the tip is broke pretty much. how would u fix them iv usually broke poles farther down and took old blanks and cut them down to fit inside the broke blank then glued them together and some shrink tubing. that always worked well for my bigger carp and salmon rods. but these are bass rods. i was thinking of putting welding wire threw it and glue and heat shrinking it. idk how well it will hold though and i dont have the money to buy a new pole

pflueger sticking
my pflueger echlon has this problem as well i usualy just blow it out with a air gun and oil it up it usualy lasts half a season and i fish every single day from when the ice thaws till its iced up again. i just blow em out and oil them during season and it fixes the problem. i'll do a complete tear down and respool all my reels after a good cleaning and lube job every winter

r/c nitro trucks
I'm just a bad driver ;D ;D Kept running into things and when your run those trunks into something @ 35mph somethings going to break.. Sounds like you should get your dad into fishing then he can keep buying you lures instead of parts ;D hes the one who got me into fishing sense i was able to hold a pole me and him went fishing every chance we got. my mom always told me stories that when my grandma would come over my dad would grab his poles and dart out the back door and hit the creek behind there old house. i inherited the same gene cuz i did the same thing when my grandma came to visit lol shes crazy
