Hi all, thanks for the replies and advice. Really appreciated.
It struck me last night that this particular rod was with an unlimited lifetime warranty. It's a CD GIII 7'6" 4-5wt, 2 piece rod which is its only drawback for me.
Yep it really comes into its own for close quarter fishing. But can still throw a good length of line with it.
Anyway much to my wifes disbelief I dug out the warranty card from a box in the depths of all the other crap the garage has swallowed.
Will see how I get on with CD when I give drop them a line on Monday.
Otherwise I might take you up on that offer GWH.
And yes Kiwijames it may come to that, a new rod.
I've got a kilwell 4pc 8ft 6wt which has done a fair bit of back country and also done a fair bit of time on the Tongariro when I've been short of a bigger rod too. But the 7'6 I find a real sweet rod for throwing around dries and/or small nymphs so really hoping it can be saved.
Cheers all.
