PLEASE READ: What To Expect
Fishing ROD REPAIR
GOOSE CREEK RODS would never rush through a job just to “push it out” and collect payment. We consider ourselves craftsmen who take great pride in our work and pay strict attention to detail. Most fishing repair shops focus on volume. At GOOSE CREEK ROD & REEL, we focus on quality because we take great pride in what we do. As a result, your rod will be returned in better condition and appearance than when you brought it in. Our greatest advertisement is the word of our loyal customers.
Rod repairs are given priority simply due to the short time investment needed to replace a guide or a tip. Most repairs can be turned around in one to two weeks if not sooner.
Rod Repair Services: Tip replacement, handle/grip repair or replacement, butt, and reel seat replacement, rod stripping and refinishing, guide replacement, guide re-wrapping, custom rod painting, and clear coating.
NOTE: We will no longer “splice” a rod back together broken at the top 1/3 of the rod. Any repair will affect the overall action of the rod. It is our suggestion to simply replace the rod. If the rod is broken mid-ways or the bottom 1/3 to 1/2 of the rod, then we will attempt a repair. The decision is based on a physical evaluation of the rod.
We keep the most common guides and tips in stock. Contact us today to schedule an appointment.
Fishing REEL REPAIR & SERVICE
GOOSE CREEK RODS offers repair and service for all makes and models of saltwater fishing reels. We do not service freshwater reels at this time.
Every reel is taken all the way down to the frame and first, throughly cleaned by hand. All parts are then placed into an ultrasonic cleaner to remove all remaining grease and oils. Parts are removed, rinsed off and reassembled using only high quality oils and lubricants.
The entire process takes approximately 2.5 hours per reel on average. Some reels take longer. We do not rush through the process just to get the job done. Each reel is treated as if it were our own and great care and attention to detail is adhered to on every reel.
