brown parcel tape.

Only at the weekends.

Seriously, the only thing you can do is to send them to somebody trustworthy like scott at eselle pole repairs. Apparently, he does a very good job & is very competitively priced, he is probably more qualified to tell you how to maintain them as well.

as baitchef says scott at eselle pole repairs is the main man to to send worn or broken sections to top service and prices

brown parcel tape, on the male section. Can’t believe you’ve never seen it. works, cheap, choice is yours…

Viagra nob is right just stick some boxing tape on the male joint,alternatively you can buy a joint spray ive seen it in the tackle shop i think prestons make it.

wovencrest shrink wrap joint sleeves.

best thing is candle wax ….or joint spray like sensas ptfe spray ….but not a joint saver or sleeve

Any one had their pole repaired at Esselle?

Just wondering how much a repair to a top 3 roughly would be?

TOURNAMENT-TOM the best thing to use if they are not worn to much is nail polish hardener see ask any one in the make up shops for the best one its about £6 then candle wax them do it every month and they will last ages

godfish….whats wrong with the top 3 exactly?

if its only slight wear after every session clean with soapy water and then give them a good polish on both joints . ive used joint sprays befor they are a waist of time your hands will be black after a session fishing.

ive been using the sensas ptfe spray for a while now on baggin machines recomendation and have had no more problems of joint wear. i spray them after about every 5 outings

godfish i have had a few repairs done by Scott and they are all first class. And when he lets me know when he is coming up to watch that red shite again i have a couple more for him to do.

hiya blunt…thanks for that again….coming up on the 16th…for the game that we batter them mancs!

Godfish…I recently had the miss fortune,finding my 14mt section with a big hole in it on my 301,got in touch with Scot,had it back inside a week,£30,job done,touched up the graphics myself,several of my mates have been impressed with the repair, looks almost like new,I can’t say enougth about the guy,certainly saved me going out and buying a new section – give him a call or send an email.

Scotts repairs are spot on,
i’ve had a no5 section,and a power top 2 done, both are sound if not stronger than before.

Duz.

thanks again renarc and duzabit

baggin machine….top 3 has a small hole about 3 inches in from the base…it could well be splintered from their as well…also my top 4 has cleanly snapped in two? cheers

godfish…u will be looking at £15 for the number 3 and £25 for the number 4 plus delivery mate

Thanks for the reply…do you deal with any tackle shops around the west midlands i.e collection?..
