I ended up fixing this myself. Doing the repair made me want to build a rod....
It was easy enough and came out great. Bought the supplies on Mud Hole since I wasn't in the rush I thought I was in.
Of course the guide I ordered wasn't the right size...went to Bass Pro and bought a whole set of guides for $13....one of them fit the bill and was the exact brand and fit. I have extra guides if another one breaks now.
I will be making a rod though....eventually. Will probably start with a cheap freshwater blank kit, get my feet wet and go from there.
Lots to read and study before then.....good winter project I think.
