Ferrule Crack on Travel SB Rod

[VolFan]

On my Okuma Citrix Travel rod the other night, the top 3 sections worked their way loose from the reel section, and a horrible noise was heard on the cast as the small piece of the upper end still in the lower ferrule cracked the female ferrule for about 1/4 to 1/2 in (and then went flying 30 feet into the water). The total length of the ferrule is about 1.25 in.  Would y'all think I can get the ferrule re-wrapped and aggressively epoxied and be ok for a while?

Pm dvt or call him.  Depending on the rod it my be cheaper overall just to replace.

If I'm not mistaken that rods $100>. Since it's a travel rod shipping should be reasonable. Contact me to discuss if interested in repair. I'd put a thin fiberglass sleeve over it, wrap and epoxy.

Given its availability and affordability, I wouldn't repair the rod unless there is some attachment. The cost of repair and shipping will be enough to make me just buy a brand new rod unless it was expensive. I see the rods brand new for around $80-$90

First, sorry for the late response. Those rods come with a lifetime warranty. You might want to contact Okuma. I have found them to be very helpful.
