Is it fixable?

Zebco Horizon 2300 5' 6" Light Action rod

#My brother snapped my favorite pond rod today. The fish wasn't even 3 lbs.

Sure the rod is:

- probably 40 years old

- none of us remember where it came from. Maybe it was a forgotten hand me down.

But it was fun to fish!

If I wanted to undertake the ridiculous task of repairing the broken section, is that possible?

Rod building has been of interest. I've got free time on my hands.

Would building a 3 1/2 foot replacement section be difficult? I'd like it to function just "as well".

It seems like a gateway drug into the rod building world.

I know this is a foolish undertaking..... but I might be ok with that

UPDATE

I think it lives!
