My friend
If you have a Dickerson, an Edwards please have it doen. The repair is cheap.
Otherwise glue the heck out of it.
Reel seats are not difficult, and even redoing one is not rcoket science, to include doing the cork.
Micke Sinclair has a book out Fly Rod restoration which is fabolous. He has written about Divine, Heddon and has the Granger book/library as well.
I use this all the time
Again, glue it if a work horse rod, your blue collar rod, or get it fixed!
Good Luck
Jimmy
