  1. Thanks so much for your words from experience, you were right it is a full thickness fracture, I swear it was much thinner when I first heard the crack. The image didn't show it completely but it was the male ferrule that was cracked. Also about all the skill that would be needed to fix this, I think I'll be better off using this as an excuse and buy a new surf rod while scavenging for anyone who would sell the top piece for me haha. Thanks for your 2c, I'll probably give this a try and fail horribly and then scramble for a new light surf rod! I sent them an email and they got back to me that there wasn't enough demand to create spare rod pieces. Oh wells 😕
  2. I have a Shimano Aerowave 3PC and while fiddling with it at home after I bought it online, I applied pressure at an angle and created a hairline fracture on the blank. It still hasn't touched water and has been rotting in my garage. Will it be possible to fix this? Or are there any stores that are known to order separate pieces?
  3. Hey, so for plastics how would you recommend to rig it? As you said "if it doesn't look right, it will probably reduce the chances of them biting". Would "poorly" rigging the minnow look more natural?
  4. Hello, which tackle shop was it that makes these mixed packs? I would really love to try these flies
  5. @fishii May I ask how you made it there, if you don't mind that is. I tried going through the rocks from the bottom of the beach but there was too much algae making it impossible to make it through with the gear I'm holding.
  6. I want to pick up ISO fishing even though it'll cost me an arm and a leg but the only thing stopping me now is the unclear sizing of split shots on the leader. Are there any ISO fishermen here able to explain the weighting of split shots? I can't seem to find many Size 00 Split shots or even a chart explaining how heavy these split shots are so I can just make the equivalent amount with smaller split shots. Also, would it be alright to use braid line rather than the "iso line" which I think was floating mono line?
