Does anyone know any good rod repairers as 1 of the eyes has come off one of my rods

foxons in st asaph pal,she's very good re wipped my penn with fuji rings.

If it was a tip ring I'd go to Geoffs, they will do it whilst you wait at less cost than you could do it yourself by the time you've bought the glue.

For any other rings I absolutely agree, go and see Renee Foxon at Foxon's, her work is amazingly neat and she can match the original finish.

Cost varies on the quality, ring size and whip finish, I think I paid under a £5 a ring a year ago, turnaround was about a week then

thanks phil.

hi
i had 3 eyes rewhipped at foxons about 3 months ago, shes brilliant a perfect match to the originals think it cost me £18

i had a super match rewhipped and new fuji eyes by her at foxons its neat i'll give her that. but the thread was that thin you can see the blank through it. cost me £84.

£18 ? £84 ?? Do yourself a favour and get yourself down to Jokers !

Paid over a hundred quid for Foxons to re-ring my Zippy and put new shrink wrap on it at the start of the year.

Job looked half finished when i went to pick it up 2 weeks later, and the silly cow then charged me another £20 to make it presentable and it took her another week!

Kept trying to phone them and they didnt answer once. Sea anglers are treated like scum in there.

I will NEVER go there again. Load of shit!

Foxons are ok if your rich (like Kev) but you wont get a brew there while your being told about the big fish that was caught by the one armed man like you will at Joe's lol
