Members westbranchfly Posted June 13, 2015 Members Posted June 13, 2015 I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this. My one spey rod is getting some mileage and is in need of repair. The reel seat is completely loose, as in, it just about spins all the way around the blank, and a few of the guides could use rewrapping. does anyone know anybody that could fix this rod? Thank you.
Dutch Posted June 13, 2015 Posted June 13, 2015 I had some rod work done by Dale Griest. He is just south of Nixa. He made a 15 year old Fenwick HMG look like new and was quite reasonable. His phone number is 724-9903.
Nighthawk Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 I might be able to help you. I have been building graphite fly rods for over 30 years and have restored bamboo fly rods in the past. I would do the work for free if you will work with me a little bit on my spey casting. If I look at the rod and can't fix it for you, I would tell you up front rather than do a half assed job. My number is 417-459-0107. Russ BilletHead 1

Members westbranchfly Posted June 15, 2015 Author Members Posted June 15, 2015 Thank you Dutch. BilletHead, I think you may be right. Russ, I appreciate your gracious offer. I'm glad to help you out, actually, I'll show you a bunch of stuff to NOT do with a two hander.
