Mold on Cork Handles? - 03/03/18 02:40 AM
Has anyone ever experienced mold or what looks like possible whitish mold on a cork handle? I had it stored in one of my rod storage compartments on my boat for probably less than a year. It was one of my extra rods (which if anyone else is like me and have way more fishing poles than I could ever use) that I had carried on the boat for a just in case situation. I don't think that it was ever wet while being stored in the enclosed compartment on my boat. I didn't know if that humidity got to it or if it is just something else other than mold. If it is mold, would you try and clean it or just replace the rod (it was about a $50 rod)? Do y'all regularly clean your handles and/or your fishing poles?
