Boiling water won't melt the carbon or resin of the pole, but it might (might, I say) help loosen the screw-in thingy.

However, if that was properly stuck in with a resin based glue, it could be as hard as the pole itself.

Have you had the pole very long? I ask this as there is no way under normal use a 6lb carp would break any section of a Maver Mobydick. Perhaps you should take the pole back to the retailer and ask for a new section F.O.C.

Your pole should be able to handle fish a lot bigger than that.
