Quick fix for broken rid tip.

Recently I broke one of my trolling rod tips and forgot about it until I was ready to go again. So I applied this quick fix and it worked great. The break was fairly clean and not splintered significantly. Having a few other broken rod tips I found a section that I thought I could cut, with a Drimmel cut off wheel, a piece from that would slide over the two broken ends reasonably well. After sanding the two broken ends I applied some epoxy, slipped the piece over the ends, and left overnight. The piece I cut had a eyelet on it so I just left it. It worked as good as new and no plans to buy another one. Just an idea that might help someone in a bind.Attachment 211481

I do the same thing except I put the piece inside......you have to look close to see it has been repaired

Great tip! No pun intended...

I do it the way you did and wrap over then glue over wrap . But that was when I used B-n-M jig poles never had to fix an Ozark .

Thanks for the "Tip".

I like it, I like it!!!

So when I broke a tip eyelet off,I got the eagle claw replacement tip....glued as per instructions....
Said glue did not hold!!
Any tips ? Crazy glue....gorilla glue? Budrouxs butt paste?
Bring out the knowledge , and take me to school here

I've had the same experience with the glue that comes with the tips. The last time I just used crazy glue, so far, so good.

I have one now I used the tip glue on. Every time it gets hot, the tip rolls around on the rod. I'm gonna try some kind of super glue on it if I can get the other stuff off of it.

Wrap a little sewing thread around the tip soak with super glue ,tip problem solved !!!-
