Nice work! Pretty much what I was thinking of doing. I was just searching around on the web for someone with the same thought of repair. Tight lines! Be well! 🐟🐟🐟
OK I couldn’t find a nail that was the right size but I did find an old drill bit. It did the trick fit just about perfect the epoxy took up the rest of the space.
My 3 y'old son playing with my jigging rod the other day..hit the ceiling fan and the tip of the rod just broke..been searching on how to fix it and found your video bro..thanks alot..my rod is pe 1-3 cant find any nail that fit but i tried with my wife sewing needle and it just snug in perfectly...haha..nice!..im waiting for epoxy and braid that i ordered online and we'll good to go..👍
Your video is 3 years in the past now, so I hope you see this. I've watched a few videos this morning of repairs and in each the ends of the rod are squared off using a hacksaw. Each time I watched the videos I wondered, doesn't the fiberglass tear at the last cut of the hacksaw? So, wouldn't taping the cut area prior to hacksawing prevent tear out?
This is possible the worst thing you can do. That section is now going to have 0 flex and going to snap again on any large fish. You’d be better off re tipping the end and just making it a shorter rod
Thank you so much all I did was cut a jig for the str8 part and slid it in and got a epoxy good as new 180 stcroi bass x😊

I couldn't find a nail small enough was thinking about the drill bit and I ended up using a hook shank I cut the hook and the eye off sweet fit

Wo god woork
Thank you!
I broke my rod and just rednecked it with a coat hanger and jb weld lol
Think I’d go that route before a nail. At least the coat hanger has flex. 🥹. Did your fix work??
You should really watch a few other video's of this repair from professionals so you can learn to do it RIGHT.....
