Rod guide replacement

Post by franklauzon »

I've got a Shimano Convergence baitcasting rod that has a cracked ceramic guide in the middle of the rod. I have already cut off the guide, and was wondering if there was anyone it Ottawa that could replace the eye?

Thanks
Frank

but you can get complete replacement guides at Le Baron, It's easy to DIY with a bit of epoxy and thread.

I can do them Frank. It takes a bit of time though so it means 2 trips to the store. Darn

As Ed from Paddletales already said, he does them and does a great job.
