    At some of the Acedmey stores they carry the small fuji tips. I also found that grizzlyjig.com has replacment top sections for Buck's for about $15. I seem to break about one a year.

    You can go to Barlowstackle.com and buy rod tips in their rod building section. You use hot melt glue to hold the new ones on the rod.

    I order my tip sections several at a time for 13.00 from B-n-M.0 The shipping is the same cost for 1 or a 1/2 dozen.

    I checked several places and Barlowstackle looks to be the cheapest. Shipping and all for 20 - 6/64 tips Fuji BPOT Tops. They are .80 x 20 is 16.00 + 5.75 SH total 21.75 . That would cost about 1.09 each. Waiting to hear from another source before I order.

    Thanx Wills.

    Hope I can help you in the future. NIMROD

    Been a while since I bought a bunch, but I was buying the pole tip eyelets direct from B&M for my 10' poles. Found a receipt where I bought a bunch back in '05 for $2 each. Part number is BGJP Eyelet. Just hold a cigarette lighter flame under the broke one for a couple of seconds, and it'll slide off. You can use super glue or any other good glue on the new one, but I always used the hot melt stick that's used for archery arrow inserts so I could continue to replace them as needed.
