Delaware Valley Tackle Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 You put the tip off another rod on the fenwick? Why not splice the original back on? Quote
jbrew73 Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 Will it work? Yes Will the action change and make the rod possibly unusable? Likely No harm gluing it on with the a removable glue and trying it. If it doesn’t work out you can have the broken part spliced back on as DVT suggested. Quote

RealtreeByGod Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 Should've seen if it was still in warranty first. I broke the tip off my UL Eagle pulling down a snag, sent it back to Fenwick, and they replaced it for no cost. Quote

I did, I broke it though I sat down on it emailed fenwick 3 times because they said on the website that even if you broke the rod they would give you a “sweet deal to get you back on the water” oh and by the way I also have a fenwick eagle that I use as my trout rod. It’s an awesome little rod 1 Quote
Shimano_1 Posted August 11, 2019 Posted August 11, 2019 It will definitely work. My dad has done this several times. Just obviously changes the length and action of the rod. I see no reason it wont work for something tho Quote
