I am in need of pre-built upper rod ends. I have two butt sections off from a Lamiglass (expired warranty) and a Shimano IM6. Both upper halfs are smoked and not useable. The Lamiglass broke in half and the Shimano is in two pieces. I am looking for pre-build upper ends. Any suggestions on where to look. Oh both rods are MH 8'6" casting rods. I have found full blanks, but I only need the upper end. These are only 100 dollar rods total, but I don't want to throw them out.

If you are anywhere near Woodland, stop by the Lamiglass factory. They have a barrel of "seconds" that you can pick through. Every rod I have built has been on Lamiglass "seconds". They used to go from $5-$25 depending on the rod and the flaw.

Where ya located? I don't know if shoffs tackle is still in Kent, but they had a good selection.

The Lamiglas shop is at about exit 20 on I-5. G-Loomis is across the way off down river dr. You probably could get both pieces at one shop or a trip on either side of the free way. Anglers work shop next to Lamiglas may also have some options for you.
