Hook, Line, and Sinker? Closed???

[Kola16]

I went to hook line and sinker today to see if I could get my trout rod fixed, and the store was empty Did it shut down, or move again, or what 

And does John's Sporting Goods repair rods

Don't know about John's but Greg at Greg's Custom Rods in Lake Stevens can probably fix you up.  He has helped me in the past.

Cool,  I may check him out. It is just that John's is right down the street from my school  I don't know if it even can be fixed. It is broke about 8ish inches from the tip, and it is just a trout rod  I loved that rod though so it would be nice to have it doctored up.

Hook line & sinker closed a few months ago. Too bad. It was a good shop.

Closer to the tip the break is, the harder it will be to fix with anything close to the original action. Especially for a light action rod. If they're still made you could buy another and have a spare butt section.

That's what I was thinking  It is about 11-12 inches from the tip so..... ya  I may just have to get a new rod because I bought this rod like..........8ish years ago  I will have something figured out.

A buddy of mine in Lake Stevens builds and repairs rods
Maybe he can do it

Well after googling my rod...it is only about a 25 dollar rod so......... I'll just buy a new rod for that.

Thanks for all the help though guys  I break a few rods so I will probably be visiting a few eventually

Cool. Glad you found a solution.

Last time I found a trout rod  I really liked for a reasonable price I ended up buying 5 of 'em- figured I/my kids would break 'em and I'd have a couple spares. Of course we haven't broken any...yet.

If you find a blank you like pm me. I'm always looking to do new builds and with 20ish rods in my arsenal its kind of tough to justify new builds sometimes no payment, just practice for me.

I stumbled into the store on it's last day......... Everything was like 50% off. I ran to the bank and dropped 400 bucks on...... stuff. The owner said he was looking to open a store in a better location sometime in the future.

Don't rub it in without telling me before it closed
