Rod butt repair question

Kevdog540 · 03-26-2009, 09:18 AM

The tip of the rod butt on my fin nor rod came off on our last trip. What is the best way or the best way to reattach it? Glue, epoxy, 5200? Thanks, Kevin

5 min epoxy will work just fine, so will the slow cure, and so will 5200 I have used all of these. watch out for the 5200 has a tendency to grow on you and your grip.
