Morning all. I have three harnell rods that I want to have rewrapped and finished. Does anyone know a company/shop/guy that does nice work?

Kevin is the man. Reliable and competent. Buy all my rod building materials from him.

That's three times this month I have heard people rewrapping Harnells.

Funny as it is a name I haven't heard in years...I have a pair as my main trolling sticks and love'em...

Since you are on LBI another guy to check out is Billy Gale over in Forked River. I have known Billy over 30 years and have seen a lot of his work.

He is located a stone's throw from Rick's Marina, and is well know in the area.

Mike O's friend Hank in NY made me some real nice rods:

Hank builds the finest rods in the world. Hands down. There is nothing else to say about that.

Shoot, I was so lucky I "won" a UVI rod of Hank's in Panama in our raffle to replenish the bar tab. You know, the rules committee & all that.......
