I have a really nice Castaway rod and one of the ceramic fuji guides broke and I need someone to replace it and re-glass my rod. Its the first guide from the reel seat. Can anyone recommended someone in Utah county that can replace it and re-glass it. Thanks!

The only rod (eye) repair I found were the folks at Fish Tech - they were able to replace my eye They also have the all materials and rod holder jig if you want to purchase them and do the repair yourself.
The turn around time was about 2 weeks.
Good luck and hope you find someone closer but if not the Fish Tech folks can help you.

I can replace the guides and flex coat it, but re-glassing the rod, not sure what you mean by that. if you want the whole rod recoated not sure about that. I've been wrapping rods for over 25 years I've never glassed a whole rod. let me know. later chuck

I guess I didnt have the lingo correct. Just one guide repaired and flex coat it. How much would you charge?

I'll only charge you a couple bucks. do you have the guide or do you need another one ? some times it's hard to match the original thread on the other guides because of sun fade. I can rewrap all the guides if you would like, if the match is off too bad, or if it's not a big deal to you. just let me know, I live in west valley.
