    I asked Adam at Fisherman's Central and he referred me to Bill Eshelman. You can contact him at 330-499-4163. His address is 1108 Ellenhurst in North Canton. He was having some health issues last summer when I bought a couple guides from him, so I don't know if he's back to repairing rods or not yet.

    I’ll give Bill a call after the holidays. Thanks. I spent enough time on fishing in the summer...I try to devote my time to the wife and family in the winter. Don’t really want to get into rod repair. That’s why I asked the question.
