I have a few vintage fiberglass rods that need some work. One is an orvis powerflex 8' 7wt and the other is an orvis fullflex 7'6" 5wt. Both have some guides that need rewrapped.
Question is do you:
A) try to keep them as original as possible? Only repair the guides that need it and make them look as close to the original?
B) re-do all the guides so they are as functionally sound and strong as possible and say f it to keeping them original?
I'm leaning towards the latter. I plan on using them as I love these two fiberglass rods and have little interest in value or selling them.
What would you do?
