I broke a redingington prospector 11' 3" 4 piece rod. I don't want the tube to go to the land fill. It will fit sections up to 38-39". Pm if interested.

The tube and sock are free but you want the broken rod too?

Do you have any idea of the shipping cost?

Guys are funny - you can't hardly give stuff away without issues! If you still had the rod, and it wasn't splintered, I taught myself how to fix clean broken sections with internal splints.
I broke two Gatti rods, one a 9' #4 about 15" down from the tip top and an 8' #5 about 24" down from the tip top. I fixed both in less than an hour and you really have to look to find out where they were broken and I guarantee the rod will not break again, while casting or fishing, in the same place.

I don't know the shipping cost. I will ship it the cheapest way I can. I would guess wbranch is right; shipping will likely be $10-$15.

Thank you for the generous offer. I will take the rod tube pending a quick measurement when I return home this evening.
I have a three-piece 9' rod that I purchased here from the forum a few years ago that does not have a tube. I am pretty sure each section is almost of equal length (9'/3 should be about 36"), but I want to make sure that the rod will fit.
If the rod will fit the tube, I will send you a PM later this evening.
Until then, it's fair game....

$35 and Redington would fix the rod. Just curious why you would try to ship the tube and sock but no have the rod repaired?

Correction. Tube will only fit 36-37" rod sections. Sorry for the error. Tube is still available.

Hopefully someone will come forward in the next week, if not it goes to the landfill.
