Used my Nash Dwarf 2lb 6ft rod for the first time today (third rod) and the tip ring is faulty. Cant return as out of warranty.

Does anyone know a rod builder in Herne Bay , Canterbury area or possibly Maidstone that would be able to replace like for like. I realise Tackle Box is an option but preferably somewhere a bit closer

Have you tried heating the base of it up to melt the glue and see if it will pull of and speak to Gary at the tackle box and order a new anti frap tip eye for it

Would a local tackleshop not be able to help Paul. They were the usual go to for that kind of thing. That's if you have a local tackleshop these days.. Maidstone Angling might be able to help.

Not sure if they still over the service these days but many years ago I had the ceramic ring replaced in an eye by Maidstone Angling. Worth dropping them an email
