 This post is really about a few things. First of all I have a really old ryobi cobra S but was hardly used until I did at the start of the year but lost the winding handle down the rocks at the dawesville cut. It's a good little reel and came as a combo and really want a new handle.

secondly I have a rod with a tip which has a big chip and it frayed all the fishing line that goes through it. Any idea where I could buy a tip that would fit and how to put the tip on?

any info would be appreciated!

otherwise use a lighter to warm the tip (just the base of the tip on the metal) just a bit and itll come off easily

 As above , then take the old one to one the sponsors shops and get one the same size, put on with some hot melt glue, so it will come off again ..... Or dimly get the shop to do it, only takes 2 minutes

Yep as the guys have said, just bring in the rod and we'll glue on a new tip for $8.00 (FW pricing) plus fit it with hi-temp glue free of charge, that easy.

 

As for the handle, bring in the reel and we'll go from there.
