Not sure about Vic area but if you strike out, I can vouch for the quality of this guy close to Fairwinds / Schooner Cove

Do you still have the piece that was broken off ??? If so it can be repaired with an over sleeve/ possibly an inner sleeve repair.I have an Okuma 6'6 hali rod that's unfortunately lost 10inches off of it, Is this even repairable? Curious if anyone knows someone In the Victoria area .

just add a new tip top to it. might be different for a fly rod or steelhead drift rod but halibut rods are already like pool cues so it's not going to change the action muchUnfortunately that ended up in the water .. might have to take it up to Mike and get it fixed.

In July, Island Outfitters put a new tip on an old trolling rod for under $10 while I waited. A couple of years ago they weren't doing that work, and sent me to Success Tackle in Mill Bay - fellow works from his basement, and is reasonable - he will also trade for work done [he rebuilds old rods and reels and has lots for sale] - Barry @ 250 743-3782.Andy at custom rod builders 250-544-8880 on Willis Point rd in Vic is really good. Like has been mentioned 10” is significant so it may be beyond repair or cost prohibitive.
He has repaired and done warranty work on a few rods for me over the years
I believe Outfitters does rod work too, I would buy a new rod from Trotac !!
