Looking for someone local to DFW area ( I live in Watauga) for some rod repair.

I have a Dobyns Fury casting rod that needs a new tip,

I have a Shimano Intenza casting rod that needs a new ceramic guide insert on the tip,

and a Falcon HD spinning rod that needs a new tip.

Shoot me a direct message on here, or you can also text me @ 817-nine eight zero-1238 (Ray)

I know I could probably send these in on warranty to get repaired, but I figured out would reach out to someone local so I wouldn't have to deal with shipping issues/delays/etc....

How to fix???? This is by far my favorite rod....it’s a Shimano Crucial and the EVA foam grip has come loose. The grip itself is not torn. I was thinking of trying to re-glue it back, I can’t get all of the old glue out of the handle. I’m not opposed to having someone fix it. They just need to be local. I’m in Dallas. Any thoughts?????

I think you can glue it back. Just try to clean off the old glue and then re-glue with some rod builders epoxy glue. I got two rods that I need to repair and that is what Im going to do. I ordered a small amount 40 minute epoxy glue from Mudhole.com. I sent them a picture of my worse rod and that's what they told me to do to fix it.

I was thinking about trying that. Barlow’s is right down the street from me. I also had the thought of just cutting it off and putting a Winn wrap on it. Thanks

need guides put on a couple of rods. They aren't end point but ones in the middle. I live in Arlington, so anyone close by that does this, please PM me.

Anyone who can do rod repair near Joshua, Clenburne, Burleson, please PM. Thx!

Anyone cleans and oil spinning reels in the Houston,Tx area... have a couple of vintage Garcia Mitchell 308 spinning reels that needs this service... thanks in advance

In Rockport you have Smith Custom Rods at 830-708-8889 for custom build or repair. Also in Rockport there's Riekers and Sons for a custom build or repair at (469) 267-9196. I have a full custom rod from each as well as a repaired rod from each and they're all fantastic. The only reason to go with one over the other is probably turn-around time, you never know which one is able to get it done quicker.

phone #????
