A repair kit for fishing rods that has a replacement tip and a coupler to
repair the shafts of the broken rods. The kit can be carried in the field
as part of regular tackle box. The replacement tip is a formed body that
has a threaded end. The ferrule is formed as part of the body so that is
not susceptible to breakage. The ferrule can be also lined with a ceramic
eyelet that reduces friction on the line passing through it as well as
adding strength. The coupler is a two ended-part that has two formed
tapered threads or two formed metal inserts inside the coupler. The
coupler is twisted onto the end of the broken rod until it is secure. The
other end of the broken rod is then twisted into the open end of the
coupler. Once the second end of the rod is secure, the rod is again ready
to use.
