Rod Repair

#1

Post by EastBranch »

I have a rod in need of a ferrule replacement/reset due to clicking. It's an AJ Thramer rod and I have not been able to contact him. I know the ferrules are pined.

Any suggestions for someone who does quality work in the NE?

Thanks!

I'm curious. Is it clicking because the ferrules are worn is the ferrule loose on the section?

Chris McDowell learned from AJ and might be able to help out too. He's on the forum.
