Is it feasible and easy to replace rod handles? I have a rod that does not have a fitted reel seat. I would like to replace it, but I'm not sure if it's feasible or easy to do.

Itepends on what material the handles are made of but usually you have to stip the rod and rebuild it completely due to the taper of the blank. Pat

Thanks patfatdaddy,
It sounds like I'll be better off buying another rod. To bad, I really liked that ugly stick crappie rod.
