I need to send a rod back to the manufacturer and can use one of those cardboard rod tubes they ship rods in. I had two in my garage and must have tossed them. If anyone in the SE Mass or RI area has one they dont need and want to let it go, please let me know and I'll take it off your hands!

What legnth are you looking for? I might have one in the basement from a rod I had delivered a few years ago.

its for a 7ft rod that is now only about 5 1/2........

I have one you can have. Come get it.

I'll check when I get home and let you know. If I still have it, I'll get it to you. I think you live pretty close to me.

All set now guys thanks!
Problem resolved in less than 10 minutes!~

If its a lami, you can chop it up into small pieces and just mark where the break was.

Any carpet store will have them - ask first but I bet at the shipping dock dumpster you'll find what you need.

Most tackle shops have them laying around from receiving rods. Most of the time they will either send it back for you or give you the tube.
