Rod rings

#1 Post by kevin o connor »

Hi lads, I am looking for info on putting new rings on an old rod. I am sure this has been covered before but if someone could tell me where to find the info. I would be grateful. :D
I don't fish to catch fish. I just like using the gear.
If you think I am narky now, you should hear me when I'm in bad humour.

Thanks for that lads, I will keep it in mind. To be honest about it, the rod I am talking about is about 20 years old and does not even have a name on it. It is one that has being lying in a shed for donkeys years and I would be embarrassed to ask anyone to fix it. :oops: I am just going to use it as a guinea pig to practice putting guides on.
