Repaired by an amateur in two places. Repaired by inserting a carbon core and covering it with carbon. There is a feeling of weight at the repaired part. Strength is subjective, but it feels like there will be no problem unless you lift something about 30 cm. If I boast too much, it might cause trouble. Since it is a repaired item, it absolutely does not have 100% potential. I have many rods and use them infrequently, so I am decluttering.
