Eye Hole came off my Lami Glass
 
I was fishing the other night and on my third cast my Largest Eye hole came of it's supports.

Sure enough in the dark after took it off I promptly lost it on a rock near by. So if I'm able to buy one online do you soder it on? appoxy it? Is it even fixable?

The whole guide needs to be replaced.

I thought Lamiglas has a lifetime warranty or something like that.

Squibby -- the whole guide has to be replaced. Bring the rod to Surfland Bait & Tackle. They will replace the guide properly and will do a fine job. Take better care of that Rod!

Lamiglas didn't make the guides---Fuji did. And guide inserts pop out, and occasionally they even groove. They're wear and tear items.

I'm sure Lamiglas would replace the guide, but it would be ridiculous to spend all that money to ship a rod to Washington when any tackle shop that builds rods could do it for about $15--and faster.

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I've sent Lami's back a few times when the rod broke, but it does cost some $ to ship the tube.

I just moved to Gloucester and need to find a good local shop anyway's so I may swing into a few spots and see who could help me. I looked up Surfland Bait & Tackle but it's still 20 miles away any Gloucester locals have a shop they can recommend.
