I was in the process of placing guides on my 3-piece, 9', 5wt. fly rod and broke an inch off of the tip. It's out of warranty, but I'm thinking that I'm just going to build it without that inch. I don't think it will make much of a difference, if any, that I will notice. What do you all think?
Thanks Re: Broken tip

It will make a difference, but I don't think it'll be a deal breaker for you. I'd size and install a new tiptop and carry on with it. The difference will be very, very slight.

Thanks, Tom. I figured as much. I just wanted to get a professional's opinion.
