Sources of rod rings

[hooferinsane]

Very old shakespeare flavia 13ft match rod, a rod ring on the butt (not the butt ring, next one up) has fractured. I have looked at Ebay, but haven't seen anything bar for sea rods. Anyone know a good source of replacements for course fishing? TIA

I’ve used these several times for rod building components when I’ve been repairing or renovating a rod.

Thanks, I decided after taking it to a local tackle shop and getting quoted £15 (absolute quote) by time I had purchased materials etc it probably was just as easy to let them do it for the price.

Look on Ebay for bargains on as new quality guides - or get creative
I have a superb set of long distance bass rod guides if anyone is interested. They are very cool looking and unusual and would suit a carp rod perfectly
