Another way to do this:

To attach a wire to the end of a fishing pole like the DK9SQ I tape the wire to a two inch piece of small diameter polyethylene tubing. This is slipped over the end of the pole and the taper of the pole holds it in position. Choose a diameter small enough to fit as close to the tip as you want. Easy to remove, and spreads the forces out over the material to reduce chance of tip damage.

Hello,

Today I went to Cabela's and picked up a replacement fishing rod tip to make a modification to my DK9SQ pole.

I super glue or you can epoxy it to the top. Now I have a place to hang the vertical wire.

72 and Thanks,
