Ok guys... Here is an odd one...

While fishing with my new rod yesterday, the tip came loose. I was waiting for it to fly off the blank and down the line on a cast but it stayed put, just not in line with the other guides. :eek:

So ... I get home and decide I'm going to take the tip off and re-glue it. Well, try as I might, I couldn't get the tip off! I was glued on, good and tight, still crooked! :mad:

How could this have happened and how do I get the tip off to fix it??? :confused:

Thanks,
Rob

i believe you can heat it up and twist to aligne it, or take it off. and glue it agin.

Dennis,

When you say, "heat it up," what do I heat it with? At 9', it won't fit in the microwave! :D Just kiddin'!

Will a torch damage the tip or blank?

Thanks,
Rob

use just a lighter.not to close it should melt the glue soft and then twist or take off.
