Fixing Rod in 2 pieces

Featured Replies

I'm looking to fix a broken fishing rod. It is currently in two pieces. I want it to be impossible to notice. If anyone has any experience and could help that would be great

Good luck with that.

Agree, no way to make it invisible.  The technique in the recommended link works very well-the rod, if done right, should fish as well as new.  i fixed a shattered fly rod and the CCS numbers were the same after the repair as they were before.

Impossible if you want the best repair.  It involves 3 repair pieces. An internal piece of rod epoxied inside to bridge the break, a piece sized and fitted to conform to the original dimensions of the trimmed broken rod area, and a jacket piece to extend over the broken area.  It’s not obtrusive when completed but it’s not invisible either. It will bring the rod back to original function but requires having a selection of donor rod pieces to fit the 3 repair pieces properly, which almost no one except a pro rod builder has on hand. It is a finnacky process that takes time and skill to do, so probably won't be a cheap fix.
