Fantastic! My son broke his favorite rod and wanted to chuck it because he was upset. I will show my son your video then sit with him and fix his. In doing so he will understand that not everything broken is beyond repair or useless.
Please ignore the negative posts / thumbs down, they are just sad inside : )
Try to find a broken umbrella. There you can find a carbon fiber or metal rod. Thank me later.
Thanks bro.
You don't want to use metal as reinforcement. Metal will not bend like carbon or fiberglass. It will break at the next weakest point which is just below the reinforced section. I know this from experience. I couldn't find anything else So I just shortened my pole by four inches.
@@roadrunner8428 there's a lot of umbrella with carbon fiber rod.
great tip! thanks!
I'm gonna thank you now. Thanks:)
Fantastic video thank you for sharing my friend 👊
Excellent repair!
Excellent video with great information. Thank you
Thanks for watching!
Wow just seeing this out of the box th-cam.com/users/postUgkxQr1yd4Zc6qJF-scTB6Zb9dQbVpviuRxB recommend I have yet to fish with this set up, but based on the first hands on appeal, I can tell this is going to change the way i pack and carry to a whole new level. If you fish like i do, you know the smaller and less stuff the better. I’ve added a photo of just some of my gear so you can see how serious i am about fishing.
Thank you, very nice job.
Thanks bro so much I thought my rod was done for but I seen your dealing with the same situation cause I just caught a 103 dollar rod and as soon as I got home about one foot from the tip snapped
Hey thanks a lot for the help I just bought a new rod and reel and I broke it on the way home and I’ve had it for a while now and I just thought I bet someone else has done this before and thank God you’re video comes up awesome but the only thing is wrong with it is that you can’t really see the stuff you used to fix it but I was Familiar with all the things he used thanks again awesome video
That's unfortunate that your rod broke... that rod was brand new too. I have been using it ever since. It works great. You can put a thin epoxy on top of the super glue after it dries. I am glad you found this video helpful!
I think a fiber glass insert works better for preserving the rod flexibility. And you dont need to insert it all the way inside.
I think 3 or 4 centimeters on each side is enough if you want to keep the bending ability of the rod.
Use a sharply that’s red and color the thread let it dry a few minutes then apply your glue. Never notice it.
thanks for putting the items in description, i subscribed because of it.
Thanks man! You saved my son's fishing pole
Thanks for tips am ready to buy new one
Hahaha
Nice video man but what about the flexibility and the sense of the lure after this hotfix ?
Broke my favorite rod and this method of fixing it really works
I'm glad it worked out for you!!
Did it affect the flexibility or the rod??
The rod will never be the same. But it does work pretty well. On stiff rod tips it work change much but on soft tips it will affect.
@@SparkFishing oh thank you so much for your fast reply sir
This should work for me, thanks.
Great video, I broke a St. Croix Mojo Bass rod last year and a Lew's TP 1 Speed Stick yesterday. I broke them both the same way, trying to get the hook out without leaving enough slack in the line. I'll be soooo happy to get both these rods back on the water! Thanks!

Did it work?
@@seaxomp8613 I got few casts out of one, caught a fish and when it was close to the boat it snapped. The other one broke right away.
Thanks for doing the thinking for me!! Haha
In this case, all you forgot was the red sharpie marker before final glue
👍
Would strink tubing be better to join the two tips?
Thanks, why not use only crasy glue ?
I don't have thread, what I do have is dental floss and artificial sinew…will either work as a replacement for thread?
Where do you find the metal rod insert?
Damn wish I kept my rod tips
Just broke a tip on an expensive rod :(. How does the metal rod affect the rods feel when trying more finesse stuff?
Hey, that's sucks but it happens with all rods. As far as I understand, it should feel similar. To be clear, it will never be the same because the tip is heavier than before. I enjoyed my rods for many years with no problem. Let me know if you have any questions!
I bet you could try something lighter and more flexible
Just broke my tip
@@sujeevkula1180 rod tip easy to repair
Hey fella! Thanks for the video and insight, where did you get the rod that inserts into the rod?
Thanks man!
Hey just wondering where you got the metal rod that you inserted in your fishing rod. Let me know, please! Thanks!!
I got my metal rod at parts and craft store. I think it was a piano wire? But I know you can find these at home depot or Lowe's as well. Please let me know if you dont find it!
It was said above the metel that holds the umbrella out works well
Where can I buy a metal or fiberglass rod
How much does this effect the action of the rod ?
Pretty much destroys it depending on were it broke id say
Where did you get the metal rod that goes on the inside and what was the diameter?
I think I got it at a piano / art store. I took my rod tip and see with size fit well. I know Lowes and home depot has metal rods as well.
Nice
sir wich glue you use send me sir pic and where abkable ..
after purchasing all these supplies my pockets are sobbing because i didnt just buy a new rod xD
How is the strength after the repair? Would it be considered the weak point of the road now?
If you repair it properly the repair point shouldn't break. Rather other places may break before repair point breaks.
Will the rod still bend and have the same feel ,like will u be able to feel all the bites
Yes it does feel the same. However, you need to find a good metal rod. What I mean is proper thickness of the metal rod and the flexibility of the metal rod. Make sure the metal rod isnt too flexible and the thickness of the metal rod is slightly smaller. I have used this method and one rod lasted over 5 years. Let me know if you have anymore questions.
From Where do you get the metal rod.( The one which u put inside)
Spark Fishing im going to try fixing my UL rod using your method.. It was also broken. My problem is where to find a durable and bendable metal that i could use to insert inside the hollow. I need something with a smaller diameter so that it could fit inside. Ughh!
I have just started playing around with rod repair/ building. I picked up some great tips on this vid but just wondering why you did not use a thread that matched the rod color?
Other than that, thank you!
Should have used a darker wrap. But good method.
Dont use a long stick use a little smaller then the action on the Rod is better
Thanks for another great way of fixing a rod! Would a length of carbon rod to go inside be a better solution?
Umm.. I never tried that before. I put a metal rod in so that the tip stays stiffer than before. Let me know if you try it!
@@SparkFishing hi, where would I source a piece of rod like that?
You can usually find it on local hardware store or online. Stainless steel rod
@@SparkFishing have you used fiberglass rods of different sizes you can get cheap at harbor freight. I;m going to give that a shot
If use the metal rod .little heavy the rood .I mean better use solid carbon
Hi I found aluminium rods , do you think its will work ? , also how does the metal rod stand corrosion?
I make sure mine is water tight. I put very thin layer of epoxy to finish. But most times rod tip doesnt get in the water so I wouldn't worry about it. One rod that I fixed has been in and out of water over 5 year. It recently broke but not the fixed part but the base of the rod. Any material rod would work any long as it is resilient. You dont want to use material that will just stay bent. I hope this makes sense...
Aluminium is not suitable. Use a fiberglass tip
Having a metal rod inside the fishing rod will alter the bend characterists of the rod ???
Yes, yes it will, small price to pay rather than cutting the rod and reinserting the end guide to the new end
how durable does the rod need to be?
I would say pretty durable. It also depend on your rod action. If your rod bends easily find one that's more flexible. I prefer mine bit stiff.
I need to fix an ultra light and need it to be really flexible any suggestions
Wooden shiskabob skewer
Fishingtheneiborhood - me too. My UL rod tip got broken too. What metal did you use to insert inside the hollows? Im still trying to think where i can find a very small in diameter metal but bendable and durable.
There are top of fisfing rod segment as spare parts in the shop. You can find it on fiber glass or carbon. I recomand fiber glass as reinforcement material. You can put the fiber glass stick in a drilling machine and with sand paper you can adjust the diameter. Good luck !
Hobby Lobby carries music wire... Perfect for this hack..
I watched a video and they used a nail to put inside to fix the broken rod. Could you use a wire coat hanger inside?
I would not. If it bends inside while fighting a fish it will stay bent.
❤️
Where can you buy the fiberglass rod? I can't seem to find anything online. Great Video!
You can actually find a metal rod at lowes or home depot. I got mine from a arts and craft store. Let me know how it goes!
There are top segments as spare parts
Crazy as it sounds I get tons of broken rods from the trash at public fishing parks. Then just cut what I need from the good sections. Also unless the rod broke before the first guide don’t use metal to repair it it’ll only cause the rod to break on either end of the repair because it won’t flex anything like the original rod did.
Leave me an e-mail adress and i send you some
Use a wooden shiskabob skewer
Thankyou. Now i can repair my favorite custom G loomis 8" 4 Tuna Rod. I was devistated when a seal grabbed my 40kg tuna at the boat & snapped it my rod.
Did it work?
Pump the music directly into my ear holes
Is it Korean because you used chopsticks to apply the epoxy
My son says the rod will never be the same after repair. Do you agree?
Its sort of true. I had one of my rod repaired and used it little over 5 years. It worked just fine but after 5 years of uses it still broke at the tip. But at least the rod lasted thru some hardcore fishing.
The rod just broke anothe place farder down the rod tgis work when on a fishing trippel but long term no
I thought he was going to stick both ends in a ramen square and squirt some epoxy in it, then sand it to perfection.
Y'all seem to use epoxy what about fiberglass resin
You need use red pe.
That will mess up the action
Using a metal rod, the rod will not straighten after the tip bends. LOL!
Unless you use piano wire wise guy....lol lol lol lol lol lol lol
@@Godisforyou8989 can’t you see he is using a metal rod or are you blind as well as stupid.
@@Enpassantful looks just like piano wire to me u fuggin idiot... But I'm sure you have never seen a piano. Looks like the exact sh!t im holding in my hand as im typing... Would u know the difference in a rod and a wire? Jack@$$
I fixed a broken rod using a piece from a badly broken rod and using heat shrink, 100% easier than messing with glue
Ghetto fix but yeah rod performance wouldn't be the same.
Dude what’s with the music who knows what you doing.
Never do this!
The internal splice should be a matching material to the main rod. It should be a matching tapered tight internal fit.
All that internal cotton packing we call “ a bodge” it risks lack of full support and will spread stress in use disproportionately.
Tapered tips sections are cheap. Tackle shops sell many. You put them in from the wide end of the blank then cut down so there is maybe 50mm projection beyond the failure joint each side. You file at the break each side to be sure it fits flat at that point.
Drop the preglued internal splice vertically to drop the dry end through the opening. If it jams because of the glue make sure you have a long rod to go inside the blank to push it out. Grabbing the dry end of the new spice, pull gently and twist until it locks in place. The twisting ensures to glue fills all the joint void…no need for heavy packing and unnecessary extra glue.
If you are using 5 minute epoxy resin let the thicker end of the splice set first. It then becomes like at new joint.
Then apply epoxy resin to the thinner end of the splice plug. Put the rod tip onto this part, turning again to ensure the glue covers all internal surfaces until you but against to main rod at the break.
Align the rod eyes before the glue starts to set. Whipe surplus glue from the joint.
Next day sand the joint down until it’s smooth.
Then using proper rod makers eye whipping of fine thickness whip over the joint in a colour matching the rod blank.
Finish over the whipping preferably with high build epoxy resin. This will set hard and clear, won’t fade in sunlight. But it has a long setting time during which the rod must be turned slowly, one end in a slow moving motor OR use rod varnish instead.
Multiple varnish coats sanded down can make the joint very smooth, any thickening hard to detect.
The outside whipping is essential or the joint will just split open.
I have repaired dozens of rod tips over the years and know how to do that right!!
😂👎
So what is the Korean method in this... same as any other method... even Jb Weld is Texas based company not Korean 🤣wtf... yet another clickbait.
