This is a simple thing to do yourself.

Gently heat the damaged tip-ring and then twist,which should see the damaged ring smothly slide off the rod-tip.

Most good tackle shops ( Landers in Tralee),carry a good stock of rings,finding the correct diameter shouldn't be too much of a problem.
Secure the new tip-ring in place with a small quantity of Araldite.


P.S

Your parents live in a lovely place!Two weeks ago-Bank Holiday Monday- I climbed Brandon Mountain with my other-half,having dug some lug and found a few peelers in the estuary beforehand.We enjoyed fantastic views from the summit of all the places I have fished over the years !
