looking to get two rods rebuilt

#1 Post by Sparkie »

Does anyone know the number off the rodfather or another guy who builds rods. I need two zziplex's rebuilt over the next few weeks before I get back out fishing. I don't mind where there based, Dublin or surrounding areas would be better tho. Any info would be great.

I have your number yes, and when the top eye came off my rod the 1st trip I used it and rang and text you I was blanked. As I honestly don't want a flaming match on a public forums we will leave it at that.

I now have a few numbers off some rod builders. Cheers for the pm's and heads ups. Hopefully I have them built soon so I can get back out fishing.

I didn't slate your work what so ever. I said I had used you before. I also said I wanted someone who would rebuild a rod which wouldn't fall apart. I just missed puntuation marks. As one of the rods I want rebuilt is a rod I want rebuilt for my mate as a wedding present in the colours off his football tram.
