wraping a rod

I have a buddy that needs to have a rod re wraped and a seat added, can someone point me in the right direction or is there anyone here that does this as a hobby?


thanks in advance

Did your "buddies" rod break when someones baskets fell off their ditch ride???

Does your incessant whining make you feel better? How about you just shut the hell up and suck it up? It's a fishing forum , so please just stop.

I am happy someone bought it who needs it. I have one, so it wouldn't have gotten used if I grabbed it.

PM Saltheart too. He's done a couple rods for me!
