Should be the same as any other rod. How much of the tip did you break off? You have 1 chance to salvage it, and thats retipping it which you can do yourself.

Broke my Kistler a while ago. Put a new tip on it and it works fine. Now it's 6ft 9in instead of 7ft. Any sports store will have a tip and eye kit.

yeah if carott stix have a lifetime warranty then they might send you a new one, but if they dont you are going to have to retip it.

The same thing happened to one of my rods, it was 6'6" now 6'4". Any tackle shop would carry a Tip replacement Kit, which should include an assortment of tips and glue and directions, just pick out the tip that best fits your rod then glue, its that easy.

Just a side note: now I use the shorter rod for throwing topwaters, blades and jerbaits.
