Repairing Handle

Four inches of the handle of my spinning rod broke off.. Can this be replaced without affecting performance?

Which reel do you have, most reels have a handle you can buy and replace with. Just go to the parts department of the reel company and see.

I had one break 3" or 4" from the butt while pulling it out of a rod holder with a large fish on. I cut a piece of wood about 6" long and epoxied it back together. It has held up fine. Cathy at the rod room on canal in OB can fix it.
