Rod repair
« on: Mar 29, 2019, 07:32 AM »
Hey guys I'm in need of a couple rods to get repaired.. I'd really prefer to find someone fairly local if I can.. local for me would be in the southern tier.. Buffalo south of buffalo olean allegany ellicotville springville areas..
I thought I found someone but I've called 2x and he hasnt called me back so with the fishing season vastly approaching i want to get these taken care of
Thanks

Funny you should ask..
I called Jeff up a couple weeks ago and made arrangements to drop off rods.. he messaged me yesterday and they are done.. hoping to swing by his place and pick them up tonight after work..
Thanks for the info its GREATLY APPRECIATED!  I live only 20 min away and had NO IDEA he was in business!
Probably have him make me some custom trolling rods next spring!!
Thanks again
