My girlfriend shut a storage shed door on the end of my fly rod (quite by accident, BTW), about 4-5 inches from the tip. Is it possible to repair this by cutting the rod down to the next guide and refitting/replacing the tip? I'm not sure of the value or quality of it, I got it as a teen. It's an 8' Pfluger Summit, for size 6 line (?)
I haven't fly fished for a while and was about to do some this month. Should I just replace it or is this worth fixing? I'm very good with tools and do light wood & electronics work & used to tie flies, and would probably just try it but I figured I'd consult with the fishing gear brainpool that exists here first. A couple of pics are included.
Thanks in advance for any assistance-
