    Great video thanks - tidy Job. A mate broke his 15ft Carbon Continental rod about 6" from the tip, and said "if you want to repair it, you can have it". It was a fibreglass tip so no way to put anything inside. I managed to buy a length of Carbon tube near the right diameter to fit over the outside. I had to gently ream the tube a fraction to get it to slide down where it needed to be, and epoxied it in place. That was a year ago and the rod still casts & works well. Stay safe & well - Dave. 👍👍

    You're a master of the craft for sure. Great fix for lighter rods but it wouldn't hold fighting tropical monsters like a 80-150lb tarpon.

    • @PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman
      @PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman  Рік тому

      this is a lightweight rod so I am using lightweight materials and a lightweight carbon insert, but the principle hold for heavier rods, you need heavier inserts that match the action and more layers of tow, there are companies that do this, for expensive game and fly rods

      It is an interesting question, and i suppose i go with what i am enjoying doing now, and what i can fit in between the all the other stuff i have to do, like a job, a family, and occasionally some fishing. Editing is probably the hardest part of making any video and takes a lot longer than filming, so with many older videos it might just be better to start from scratch. A lot of the things i used to do i would probably not do in the same way as like everyone else I am learning as I go. Thanks for a thought provoking question, cheers
