i have a 6 ft titanium casting rod and i don't like the very short butt. is there any way i can have a longer butt installed? where can this be done and how much would it cost?

A lady owns a store in Freeport on I beleive on Guy Lobardo. I don't remeber the name of the store but as soon as I get I will post it. She does good work but alittle expensive:rolleyes:

I believe the shop you're, talking is on Guy Lombardo Ave. in Freeport. You can find them on a search of the web for rod building or tackle shops on Long Island. They are a little pricey, but you get what you pay for.

If you are looking to extend the butt yourself, you may need to buy a blank and cut that up. Use some thread and wrap the bottom of your titanium blank, put some finish on it so you won't end up splitting it when you put the extension inside the titanium blank. Wrap some thread on the tip of the butt extension for a friction fit inside your titanium blank then smear some good epoxy inside the blank and on the extension and insert the extension. Make sure everything is straight, clean up, and then let it set.

Goodluck.
