Duct or electrical tape it to the rod. It works had to do it on my 10 weight salmon rod years ago when the reel seat holder cracked on the rod from the extreme pressure put on it from fighting big chinooks. Thats the best I can think of it right now.

I always carry both tapes with me to the river for wader leaks, reel seats that break, rod guides that come loose, and any other thing that may break, such as my car. LOL

This board looks pretty dead, why is that, looking for new steelhead and salmon fisherman to network with seems like I have seen all of the fellows on this one on the other main boards.

Its a small internet fly fishing world isn't it ?
