You might give ' Carbon Correction and Repairs ' a call on 01332 743396 or 07971 213998. I have used them before for pole breakages and they do a good job if they cannot help I am sure they will be able to point you in the right direction.

if it is glass fiber or cane the rod splits not brake.i had trouble with and old match rod my grandad had given me when i was about 10.i found it one day and it ad broke my dad tried ringing round everywhere to get it fixed but they all said it is impossible to correct.

I have mended hollow sections in past by finding a scrap piece (tackle shops) and gluing it into the hollow section to form a spigot then gluing the other piece over it. However the break is quite close to the tip and any repair is likely to alter the action and the feel. Sadly it looks like she's a scrapper

Try Foxon's. www.foxons.co.uk as they carry out (or certainly used to) some of the repairs for Sage and have fixed some nasty breakages for me at a very reasonable cost.
