Gentleman, thank you for your quick responses. As you can tell, I am definitely in learning mode. Your suggestions are greatly appreciated. I also read Tom Kirkman’s article in the Library about extending rods. I think with all of this info, I might be able to recover from disaster. Thank you!

A piece of the butt section broke off (melted), while I was heating the reel seat (I was in the process of replacing). Am I SOL, or is there a way to recover by somehow attaching another section. Thank you!

I am looking for advice on the best way to replace the cork grip on a fly rod. Is it possible to do this by removing the reel seat and installing new grip from bottom?

I am a novice rod builder who is appreciative of any advice and guidance. I am trying to replace a grip on a Sage Z-axis fly rod. I would like to keep the reel seat. There is a hook keeper and winding check in place. Thank you!
