| Does anyone know how to remove the old foregrip and base grip cork rod handles and replace them with new ones? I have a broken rod with a nice cork grip and Fuji reel seat I would like to transplant on a current working rod if it is possible. I could not find anything specific just googling the topic.
Specifically, how to remove the current handle and the steps to put on the new one.
Thanks |

Another option is to simple cover the cork with an x-flock shrink tube material.
