My grandpa recently gave me one of his old fishing rods. It appears to be an old bamboo, octagonal rod. From googling it I think it’s a nippon fishing tackle rod. It’s in pretty rough shape, missing a few eyes and the varnish is peeling. I’d love to get it touched up and hang it on the wall. Does anyone know where I could get this done? I found a guy on the east coast but would like to keep it local. Thanks for your time.

Not meaning to thread jack but Im on a similar subject. I have two Tica fishing rods. One has a broken tip. Another needs a guide replaced. I know i have not had good luck with these poles. Both are almost new but dont want to deal with warantee so looking for a rod repair guy in Pierce or Thurston county. Any thoughts anyone? Thank for the help
