Reel Seat Repair

[Hughes]

I have an older version Penn Senator that the reel seat flops to one side. Nyone have a good idea how to make the repair without going to a Rod shop. I can't figure out how to separate the seat from the handle. Thanks in advance. Bill

Insert rodglue with a syringe. Been there done that and it works!!

Mannysmate is right on. drill a couple holes thru the seat, being careful not to go into the blank and inject slow cure 2 part epoxy into the holes. Make sure you get enough in there and then stand the rod up straight while it cures, you should be good to go.

that should work. drill where the reel foot goes..put as much epoxy in as you can
