Thread: Fly rod repair - help please

Today I turned what could have been a passable day fly fishing to a pretty average one. Breaking the tip section of my favourite 7'6" 4-5wt CD rod.
The break seems clean enough but it's pretty skinny where it's snapped so it's going to need something really thin to glue inside it.

Has anyone here done their own fly rod repair and if so could you recommend a good source for where to get a blank I can cut a piece out of to insert?

Or, could you recommend somewhere in NZ that has provided good service on a rod repair?

It's not a super duper rod and tbh a bit cumbersome for packing being only a 2pc rod. But I like the short length of it. Nicely balanced and works well with a short overall length when dealing with a bit of breeze and wanting to keep the cast tight and close to you. Also comes into it's own in tight spaces.

Cheers
