Pondboss16 Posted July 6, 2016 Posted July 6, 2016 The tip of my blackmaxx lost the insert. Now when I cast and reel the line runs against it and it doesn't cast very well. Kind of over the blackmaxx rods they r trash and this is my second one the first one I owned did the same thing. Quote
EvanT123 Posted July 6, 2016 Posted July 6, 2016 You can easily replace that. They sell kits at Wally World. Quote
blckshirt98 Posted July 6, 2016 Posted July 6, 2016 Just got to a local tackle shop and have them replace the tip. Usually just takes a lighter to loosen up the tip to slip it off, then they just glue on a new one. They should have a box of rod tips handy. Quote
Super User fishnkamp Posted July 7, 2016 Super User Posted July 7, 2016 Have them repaired, it should cost less than $20 buck Quote
thirtysixit Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 The EXACT same thing happened to my favorite rod. I got it replaced for 4 bucks at my tackle shop. Took em five minutes. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted July 7, 2016 Global Moderator Posted July 7, 2016 Youtube a video up, go to the Mart of Walls and get a replacement kit and lighter if you don't have one, fix tip for a couple bucks. It's so simple, even I can do it. 1 Quote

Poolshark Posted July 7, 2016 Posted July 7, 2016 This can happen to any rod. I had it happen to one of my fairly new croix legend tournaments not to long ago.I dropped mine off at a local shop and was back in business later that day for less than 10 dollars. Quote
