I've been fixing my own rings for over forty years and I remembered that it took a few goes to get it just right. This is the first video that shows the process, it in its simplicity and entirety. All key areas were shown and performed correctly. Excellent video.
Hey, quick question what type of string do you use? I’ve been collecting old Broken rods rods from garage sales are worth some decent money so I was thinking about repairing them and selling them forward. Thanks for the video.
I built a few rods 40 odd years ago and the satifaction of making them, then catching fish on them is immeasurable. Always a pleasure to see your take on these jobs. I used dope to tighten the whippings then 2 or 3 coats of poly varnish to finish off. Don't be a stranger, always room for a handmade fishermans video :-)
Wow this brought back memories. When I was a kid. My dad owning his own fishing store which he named Willey & son's. I used to build custom graphite rods in the back like this. People would pick out their own colors. Eyelets. Length and so on. Now that I'm 37 and just got back in to fishing because I have kids of my own now. I wish I had all the stuff I did back then 😆
wow! the ingenuity and simple things that are used (i am blown away by the use of coke can bottom to mix super glue!!) and interesting cuts in the videos (thread roll sliding), superb. you have a knack!
Excellent well done DIY video Never in 50+ years of fishing (knock on wood) have I even moderately damaged an eye guide. But I have broken off more than a few rod tips and broken rods in half. I do not buy cheap rods so I fix them if at all humanly possible On a broken rod if the brake is at area the ID is big enough I will first snad down the broken haves ends till they are perfectly flat then I will LIGHTLY epoxy in place a solid section of high modulus graphite on the inside to splice the ends back together taking care to have the ends touching and a graphite sleeve over both haves on the outside of the rod lightly epoxied in place I also try to buy rods with a great warranty but I will not discard a $100-$200 fishing rod unless I have zero choice I have had several titanium eye guide inserts come out but thankfully all have been in the guide on the rod tip so I just heat up removed the tip eye guide and glue a new one in place
Right when I need to fix mine this video pops up!! Thank you ! Seems simple but it sure will be a lot of work and practice to get it right! Looking forward to explore more of your vids
This morning I was getting my gear together for a upcoming trip. I noticed a broken eye. Found this video and ultimately replaced the broken eye. Thx!!
that is the best kind reaction, so many things i have fixed things thanks to a RUclips video, washing machines, computers and thousand and one other Things, thank you you have made a very difficult day a end on a happy note
I've just done one. I did consider shortening the rod & putting a new tip ring on it but decided to go for a repair. I measured the diameter of the rod near the break, sourced some suitable Carbon Fibre tube from eBay with a 1mm wall thickness, and used epoxy to glue the two sections together inside the tube. Coat of paint & good as new!
Someone sold a nice rod at a yard sale, I bought it, I didn’t notice one of the rings were broke, I finally got around to repairing it myself yesterday, my first time, I never used the epoxy brand I used before, man was it ever stink lol, I did the glue part outside but it was still very strong odour, anyways I will be casting today maybe. Thanks for the video.
Шикарная работа! Понял что смогу сделать так же, стал в голове прокручивать всё поэтапно и поймал себя на мысли, что поставил кольцо задом наперёд и при этом закончил работу 😅
Thankyou, unfortuantly I don't have the orignal edit after a hard drive fail so I don't know the music,( note to myself write it in the description in future)
I wish I could send you 2 of my rods. Unfortunately, a moving company bent the first guide on 2 of my Shimano spin rods. I tried to bend them back into shape but its just not the same. Haven't fished them since.
Brilliant !! I do the odd rod upgrade ring fix ... and blow me ! You did the same as me, I made a turner using an old microwave motor too ! Works a treat, just load up the thread and leave it rotating till dry..
The best way to remove the guide and wrap is to take a NEW razor blade and slide it flush to the blank after heating the wrap evenly with a torch on low. The epoxy wasn't hot enough or your razor wasn't fresh. Once you get the hang of it you can slice the base wrap and guide off in one slice, wipe with some acetone and you have a fresh blank surface with no other clean up required.

@@PaulAdamsTheHandmadeFisherman yeah one time I got a stick and put a string and hook on it,caught a fish. Felt awesome!
brilliant video but my problem is the inner plastic of the ring needs replacing, is this possible ?
I replaced the guide on my rod after watch one of your old video..
First time and really happy with the result. Thanks
Great to hear!
Been doing this over 35 years, I have 2 say I love the can for epoxy NICE!
if only it was my idea, but an old guy work showed me that one, he has been making rods probably a little longer than both of us

The coke can bowl blew you away but the looped yellow thread used to pull the tag end of the wrap back underneath itself to secure it didn’t?
For years i saw you making a lure. I was so impressed and started to do it either! So happy to see an new video
Best notification of the day. Pleased to see you back !
Same here
Їїї
ABSOLUTELY!
Excellent well done DIY video
Never in 50+ years of fishing (knock on wood) have I even moderately damaged an eye guide.
But I have broken off more than a few rod tips and broken rods in half.
I do not buy cheap rods so I fix them if at all humanly possible
On a broken rod if the brake is at area the ID is big enough I will first snad down the broken haves ends till they are perfectly flat then I will LIGHTLY epoxy in place a solid section of high modulus graphite on the inside to splice the ends back together taking care to have the ends touching and a graphite sleeve over both haves on the outside of the rod lightly epoxied in place
I also try to buy rods with a great warranty but I will not discard a $100-$200 fishing rod unless I have zero choice
I have had several titanium eye guide inserts come out but thankfully all have been in the guide on the rod tip so I just heat up removed the tip eye guide and glue a new one in place
I just found your channel. The music and detail driven repair was amazing. Worth the subscription. Thank you for the content.

Thanks for coming
great video on replacing a broken ring
I do the exact same thing with the exception of using the can upside down for my finish, genius there.
I do it a little different, but this should work.
Mixing on the bottom of a can. Brilliant.👌😎
Well hell this new grandpa is fixing his own poles from now on. Very nice work.
I like the upside-down beer can epoxy dish!
Glad you’re back!
Are you going to be posting some new lure videos to?
Nice! Would you happen to know how to repair a broken rod tip? Mines snapped before the last two guides. Thanks

well done, great videography & and choice of music, it was kinda mesmerizing/relaxing.
Nice to se you again Paul!
Comprehensive guide. Great job.
When fishing meets art.
New sub.
Welcome Back, Paul
And thats exactly the way I would have done that Job! Well Done Paul!
Exceptional... reminds me of when i was a kid and taught myself to repair my own rods...
Don't give up !!!!! I know you can do it!!!!!

Hasil nya sangat memuaskan bos ku
Nice job, mine don't look as good, need more practice. This vid helped.👍
So amazing thank you for sharing my friend watching from Philippines ♥️
Very informative tutorial. Thank you for the lesson. I will put it in practice. Informacion is confidence.
Magnificent work as always.
Best TECHINIQ for repair to rod guide. 👍👍
Wow, thanks!
I seriously thought you had quit youtube. So glad to see your amazing videos once again!!
Not yet!
wow just wow. I always see broken rods at the fishing pier that i go. Now im going to hold on to them and learn to fix them for myself
i still find broken rods sometimes even in the local lake, i have a bit of collection
Love this channel, have learned a ton and every video is highly enjoyable! Thank you for making them!
Good to know I have a few broke off on my fishing rod. Where can I buy the replacements? Thanks
Hi whats the name of that liquid you mix and cover the ceramic ring? Thanks
The video put me to sleep it was so relaxing 😌
😴
very nice video about fishing gear and repair....I didn't know that its possible to repair that part. Well done. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Can you tell me what glue do you use kind regards Rob
This is a good video. Also , may I ask what music selection this is ?
What if you only want to McIver rod guides on inexpensive kid's poles for city park fishing? Duct tape?
Suggestions on rotation motor hacks that a DIYer would already have at home; or do I need to buy this motor?
Microwave motor. 6 RPM.
looking forward to the next video.
I love the video. It’s made really well! I’m wondering what is the background music that you used?
Thankyou, unfortuantly I don't have the orignal edit after a hard drive fail so I don't know the music,( note to myself write it in the description in future)

Thanks for this video. All I want to do is add a hook keeper on front of the grip/reel because the one on my pole is in a terrible location.
it is pretty much the same same principle, i will do a video on whipping keeping rings, cheers
Simplicity at its best. Tq
Amazing video all around! Thanks…
thanks
I liked the comment that said he used poly, but where do you get the resin?
ebya, amazon, look for rod finishing epoxy

Good job 👍
Question
Couldn’t you just replace the broken eye sucked of the ring?
yes. either or
I got a damaged guide ring is it possible to break it out of the guide and glue a new ring in because that would be much easier to do for me. Thanks
yes if you can find the right insert, this is a video ruclips.net/user/shortsmir-f1-_kTw?feature=share
Great video as always!
Brilliant- thanks for such an informative video! Can’t wait to try this! ⚓️
Hope you enjoy it!
