Repair and maintenance
of rods and reels
A good rod will be a trustworthy partner for years, but over time there’s always a possibility they might break. If this happens, don’t worry! We might be able to fix your rod. In addition to rods, we also repair reels. Is your equipment damaged beyond repair? You can always find a new related product in our store.
​
If you come by for a repair, make sure you bring your equipment with you! We won’t be able to assess the damage without.
