Rod builders in Necastle/surrounding area

Hey guys, as some of you may know, I need to get a rod tip repaired rather urgently, just wondering if anyone knows of a good (and by good I mean exceptional) rod builder in the Newcastle area? Any help would be much appreciated!

Cheers
Nick

If its only the tip you dont need a exceptional rod builder. Just go to a tackle shop and ask them.

Bit of hot glue is all they use I think.

I want to get the thread matched though (there's that OCD again) And I don't want someone who just chucks it on half assed and crooked. I honestly don't think I'd cope if it didn't at the very least look like the original. I checked with my local today and they said they'd have to send it way and that it'll take 2 weeks, I'm not too keen on that.

I could get it fixed down here. Can't guarantee it would come back though...

Good luck I hope you find a good one.
