You know that the image of the rod as you build it on that website is the same for every blank? They haven't detailed every joint for every manufacturer. If you own the rods take a look at those and compare to the one in your link.

Didn't notice that, many thanks

There's plenty of other owners of the same rod on here, I'm sure they'll say I'm talking cobblers if I'm not correct. Anyway, at the end of the day, it's just a fishing rod, even if they were made by Yin Yang™ of China, we're not talking about a 14kg.bar of *supposed* gold only to find out later it was loaded with tungsten are we,.you know?

@jeffire

I wasn't digging you out by my post, just pointing out it wasn't the case of my rods

That shouldn't be necessary with the Harrison overfit joints, I think some rod builders go a bit too tight with the whippings below the joint. It looks great when new but doesn't leave a lot for wear. I'm not sur if the whipping serves a purpose or is just cosmetic to minimise the difference at the joint
I've got a few Harrison rods, 7 different blanks, not a spigot joint among them

If you have a loose fitting spigot prestons joint save is better than superglue , its what i use on worn pole fittings , as said superglue will work but isnt waterproof.bobco tackle have it , never used it on a harrison blank though .

Would a very thin coat of epoxy rubbed back to a nice tight fit not be better than superglue?
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
