I’m building a Speckled Trout rod on a cut down Lamiglas ISS1022mh blank. Do I need to add a wrap over the female ferrule for strength or can I forgo the weight? Re: Ferrule question

I would go for at least twice the diameter as a ferrule wap to prevent split out
Nothing worse than that Allen Re: Ferrule question

If they don't include such instructions on the header card I would go ahead and wrap it, snugly, getting the wrap as close to the edge as possible. The added weight isn't going to be much and I doubt you'll notice it.
