Rod guide repair?
 
Does anyone know where I can get a guide repaired on my sons fishing rod in the Edmonton area? He somehow broke the ceramic out of it.

Thanks.

X2.

No matter what I break, Trev fixes it up like new again.

Its actually really easy to do yourself. All you need is a fly bobbin, the right color thread and some clear adhesive to finish the wrap. The hard part can be finding the matching rod guide but many stores sell them. Its a valuable skill to have if you fish a lot.

If it was an ugly stik I’d give it a shot but it’s a gloomis IMX so I don’t mind spending a few bucks having it fixed up.
