man thats why I avoid two piece rods..too much stuff goes wrong. See if you can squeeze the bottom half together at all, enough to get the top half over it.

I would take the rod back to where ya bought it or send it to the factory for a replacement. Something has gone awry there. A loose ferell will only result in a rod that breaks upon hookset.
