I have a Sage 5 wt that I really like a lot. The cork isn't all that good of shape. Does anyone know of a rod builder that I can send it to to get the cork redone?
Is that even feasible to do, or should I just buy a new fly rod???

in order to replace the cork you have to either take off the reelseat or remove the line guides on the butt section. Sometimes you can repair the cork if there's just a small amount of damage; sometimes you can clean and sand the cork smooth and make it respectable; a pic of the cork might help us analyze the repair direction-p-
