I got two rods that need a few giudes on one rod the guide got crushed. And the other rod has one missing and two more that need to be rewraped. I have all ready been in tuch with rellmech. iam still waiting for a pm back. Dose any body else do it the site. I went to a shop up here and i wouldnt get my rods back intill maybe june there that busy. I havent given them the ok to start yet. So ifs there any body on here that can have them done by the last week in may pm me. I need them for a trip.

Wow, June for a few guides replaced? What are you guys doing to them that has repairs so backed up? Do you know what guides they are? Brand, type & size... most are easy to get in a week or so but there are a few I can't get sometimes for several weeks.

If you were local I would do it for you but you would spend more money shipping them to Tx with insurance both ways that you could buy a new rod.

Good luck,

Keith

flechero,

I have been trying to tell the guys that the shipping and insurance on rod repair and custom rods, is going threw the roof especially on longer 7' and 8' rods.

tipptruck1,

Don't know if you have contacted anyone of these guys in your area, but give them a shot, they come from the rodbuilding.org forum listing service "tackleworks.org" that flechero recommended and may not be as busy as the tackle shops are.
