How to Replace a Fishing Rod Tip Top - Easy Peasy!

- Here is a simple tutorial on how to replace a fishing rod tip-top and it is easy peasy. I purchased the tips and glue off of Amazon but you can find rod tip repair kits at Walmart or even your local tackle shop. I chose a rod tip repair with an assortment of tip sizes. Replacing your rod tip can be done in under 30 seconds, there is no need to take it to a shop near you. In this case, I lost the insert out of my guide and therefore have to replace the tip to prevent it from being broken off. Braid is not very abrasion resistant and requires an insert so if you have noticed that you are breaking off more than normal, be sure to check and make sure your guide insert isn't missing. Fishing rod repair kits typically cost less than $10 and are easily accessible. If you enjoyed this demonstration on how to replace a broken rod tip, please comment like, and subscribe.

![Rod Repair/How To Fix A Guide On The Fishing Rod [Wrapping And Epoxy]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/qGl-UsVfCyU/mqdefault.jpg)
Every fisherman needs to know how to do this. Whether they are a beginner or an expert. Nice instruction
I know many anglers who just put rods aside when they lose an insert, but it's an inexpensive and fast fix.
So who was the one that broke it ! 🤨. ( Josh ! 👈🏽)
@@davescheer5038 Chris used that rod the day it was broken. 👀
@@davescheer5038 definitely JOSH
Lol
Excellent video. The only thing I would add is that when you are slipping the new tip on, I would rotate the tip as I slip it in place, spinning it around two or three times as I go just like threads on a screw, to help spread the glue evenly as it goes in place. That way you won't get one side with a bunch of glue and the other side with almost none.
Just saved me the mistake of buying a new rod. My Googan Finesse Spinning Rod tip broke this morning. Only lost about an inch of the rod. Following your instructions and $3 Ozark Walmart kit saved my $109 Rod. Thanks!
Thank You! I was stressed, my tip was broken, and fishing tomorrow morning. After you explain it, so simple. Cheers!
Thank you! Love to see more beginner tips. Old fisherman here starting again. Last fished in the 70s with Mitchell 301, now long gone.
Glad to help!
I bust all mine out runni g my rod tip into stuff. Bank fisherman. Little tougher on rods. Just busted my tatula tip out. Sucks but fixable.
I always used breaking a tip as an excuse to go rod shopping, but I figured it was time to learn how to properly fix the rods I love. Thanks for the great guide!
Right on
Even if you break a couple inches off the top to y’all recommend just gluing on a new tip? I regret throwing a I a couple of my favorite rods if so😭
Call me stupid, but I always thought all was lost when the rod tip breaks. This happened to one of my most reliable pier fishing rods (cheap but been my ol’ reliable for a long time). I mean I guess I figured there was a way to fix it but I didn’t know it would be anywhere near this simple. Thanks for this!
Great stuff. I have had several inserts pop out during delivery.
These kinds of tips are always useful, I would like to see more like the knots you like for different fishing methods, splicing braid to fluro and / or mono, what line you prefer for what situations, etc...
Thanks for the link and the video, I thought heat would work but watched the video to make sure. I lost my line yesterday, when I threw my line out with weight and hooks fishing on bottom. I gave it a good cast and seen the weight make a splash way out there....lol.
Very good quick video. Well done. Yes, rotate the new tip on to evenly spread the glue around. Wipe of excess glue quickly before it dries.
Before I even watched the video I New that Chris was involved in the replacement of that tip ! 🤪👍🏼. Happy Easter Y’all ! ✝️
Happy Easter Dave, Chris 🤦♂️
Great video I fish mainly Laguna Madre South Padre island I shared this to all my homies, and I picked up a torch , this was super rad video hats off very well done. my kits are on the way.
More beginner's tips please🙏 Thank you from Dallas Texas
You got it!
Thank you! I recently jumped in the water with my pole to untangle a fish that was snagged up in the weeds and while doing so I accidently racked my rod tip on the dock and screwed up the rod tips insert causing it to shred my line like every 15 casts. Thought I was in big trouble as it's my favorite ultralight!
Thank you. I broke one on my favorite muskie rod and you saved me from buying a new rod
Thanks for the video.
Using the information tomorrow to repair my rod.
Wish I’d known how to do that years ago.
💪
Excellent video. Very well explain and easy to follow.
What can I say? I agree with all the positive comments. That's a first!
Excellent video, Joshua. I guess you know why I’m here. Happened yesterday walking down to the beach and got the tip caught in a bush. Fished anyway and was successful! But I just ordered the kit you recommended over that three tip option.
I build Rods . Something you forgot to tell was not to heat the Rod Tip to hot it will Compromise the Tip . But that was some good info .
Thanks for the tip Chuck. 👌
Thank you sharing your knowledge!
I love this and it works so good!!
Yes sir! 👍
That’s cool just got a broken tip on my ugly stick just ordered them thanks
You're welcome
Great video, gonna have to give this a shot!
Definitely 👍
Watched this video
Had an old Seeker one piece saltwater rod I love. I laid the rod across my lap. Warmed up the tip of the rod with a lighter and as the tip warmed up, the tip shot off and launched like a hot missile!
Just back away and give the tip some room to budge. Good thing I was alone. 😂
Way to go fixing tip, now that I got my supplies from mud hole tackle I can fix and make my own rods
Mud hole is a good place for sure. 👍
What helped me is to put a dab of glue on the entrance of the new rod tip so that the glue will spread evenly on all the surfaces, because I found the glue getting stripped down when I put on the tip
Found a ugly stick next to the dumpster and the only thing I found wrong with it was the tip was missing the insert. Great to know how easy it is to replace it
good stuff. thanks.
You bet
Good tips for tips!
Nice job and tutorial
Thank you sir!
Thakk you!! Very helpful!!👊🏻👍🏻Stay Safe & God Bless!!!

That was pretty easy.
Easy Peasy ❤
Makes my 10th Ugly Stick, both freshwater and saltwater. Nothing better. Hold up to everything I catch.
Thanks for the vid great tips!
Thanks for watching, bro.
Thank you!
Great video Josh. Tell buttercup he don't need to be breaking tips no more.. LOL 😂
I'll tell him but doubt he will listen smh 🤦♂️
This helped so much, oh and if yourin nz like me the tips are great from burnsco.
Thanks. They get $25 to do this at a local tacke shop. Crazy right! Tight lines! 🎣🐟😎
Yes they do
Textbook technique. Thanks.
Yes sir
Good info. Thanks
Do you know many poles I’ve wasted because the tip broke and I didn’t know how to repair it thanks brother
You should test mechanical Carpenter pencils.( pica dry, ox pencil, and tracer.)
Nice video easy as pie
Thanks
Thank You
Thanks
do you a have link for the torch?
*Nice Josh.. good Info... I used to do the super glue or epoxy ... so how about showing how to fix the the inner guides* ..gw
Hey that works, I should do a video on that as well, however when that insert is gone I usually just replace the whole tip.
@@Saltyscales *I was talking about the big to mend/fix in between the reel and the rod tip line guides where you have to cut unwrap the yarn if it get Fubaroken and replaced how to... Plus maybe share how to of always carrying mini nylon snatch down wire ties and some spare line guides emergency fix out on a trip... because it never fails that some time you or the Gilligan Little Buddy will mess them up and mash one flat...* Thanx Josh ..gw
Does anyone know if I replace it with a slightly smaller ring insert (5.3 vs 5.8mm) will affect casting or anything else? It’s the only one I have, just a bit of a smaller diameter but the tube fits perfectly. Thanks in advance
Good video❤
Glad you enjoyed!
That mini torch is too much heat. A lighter is plenty hot enough. You don’t want to break down the resin in the rod. Also, clean the rod area and wrap with tape before trimming with any type of cutter. The tape helps preventing the rod from splintering when trimming.
You definitely don't need a torch to heat but I wasn't on it long enough to break down the resin. Tape definitely would be a great way to prevent splintering. 👌
I suggest not heating up the blank directly, weakens the graphite. Just heat up the glue and guide.
All good until it lays in sun for an hour or so. Epoxy that thang once its glued.
Awe poor Chris everyone's always picking on him! But yeah it totally was Chris's fault. Thanks for yet another great tutorial!
You wouldn't say awe if you knew him lmao. He can handle it. 🤣
Rub it right on the tip 😀
Hi, enjoyed the video, thank you, question, can I just use the glue that comes with my glue gun?
Anyone know if super glue will also work?
Is that the small style box or the big style of replacement tips?
How many local news stations do you work for? I think I’ve seen you on at least two
If I'm working for them they aren't paying lol. I need that check sent to me. 👀
@@Saltyscales lolll
I was about to have to replace my casting rod because of a cracked tip... Thankfully I don't have to
Are you in the "South of Tampa " area?
@@Skorpionsolja Ruskin, Apollo
Don’t use hot glue. Use epoxy
I thought you had to put thread over the top also?
Not at all
Just subbed!
Walker Timothy Jones Helen Robinson Eric
Down and dirty thanks dude.
That darn Chris, he breaks more of your rod tips.
You got that right!
Clark Mark Jones Dorothy Rodriguez Sarah
Can I use regular hot glue for my hot glue gun? Or is there something special about THAT hot glue?
That’s what I was wondering, I’m gonna just use epoxy cause I already have jt
Can you use the glue from a glue gun to do this ?
No
I use my hot glue gun it works just as good.
Can't cut it if it works. 👍
Kewel, now I will attempt to fix wife's rod
Really lazy bad way
