The insert came loose on the rod tip of my GLoomis
I still have it and figure I just need to glue it back
In place. What should I use for the glue?
Help would be appreciated
Thanks

Have it repaired properly. The glue won't hold.
Take it to Southwest Parts & Service. Turnaround time is really quick. Will cost under $20.

Take it to Southwest Parts or if you can wait a few days, order new tips from mud hole.com. I typically keep 4-5 spares for my Loomis rods. Slightly heat up the old one, pull it off and use fuji rod glue (you can get it at Wal-Mart) to replace. The only problems Ive ever had were the inserts coming out of the tip from taking them in and out of the boat.

Get some fletching cement at an archery store or wal mart sporting goods dept. That is all you need.
