Broken eyelets
 
Last year I inherited a custom surfcasting rod from my uncle. The second eyelet from the tip is cracked and I havent gotten to use this rod all season. With the fall upon us (and my cheapy shakespear on the fritz) I really want to use this one now. I was wondering if someone here could fix it or replace the eyelets for me (locally, I live in RI) or can someone steer me in the right direction to get it fixed? I can post a picture tomorrow if needed. I have no idea clue about rod building. Thanks.

Try PM'ing one of our builders. Locally we have Saltheart, Fishaholic18, Seawolf to name a few. I am also sure DonM at King Cove can handle the job. You'll just need to leave it a couple of days for the epoxy to cure...
