These are pictures of a recent tip top repair on a fast tip Jerk bait rod ... the tip is a little faster but still a good rod ! !
I can repair most broken rods and restore the rod to reasonable fish able condition the rod will bend through the repaired portion of the rod with no loss of sensitivity or cast ability

I have been asked about how & what I use to cure powder painted Jigs. Jigs are cured in an oven for 20-40 minutes depending on temperature. This oven curing adds an extra durable shell to the jigs.

A good many of you asked what I use and while I have made a few, I tend not to use the racks in a toaster or conventional oven. Here is what works and is super easy, stable and no mess or potential of dripping.
