Hi guys,just wonder any of you guys out there a rod builder??Where do you get your supplies and component??I mean a proper component like reel seat,winding check,thread,epoxies and guide; not the bunch of used and old guide that the most tackle shop will show you if you had a broken guide.Most of the time i order them online,since theres no tackle shop that sell them in dublin.Just wonder if there any place in ireland that i can buy them.
