Eek Advice on my Rod
I had an eye break off on my Kistler Helium. I absolutely love this rod and want to fix it ASAP but would like to get it fixed right. I know I can send it back to Kistler but it will end up costing me I'm sure. Any suggestions on what I need to do?

yeah, our guy that fixes guides and tips is pretty good.. no complaints so far.

He charges $6 for the first guide or tip and $4 for each one after that.. whole rods are $25 i think. i can check the whole rod price tomorrow at the shop.
