Rudely, google Twili Tip, I think this is the way to go. I have roller rods, they’re bottom of the barrel eagle claws and I keep swearing Im going to switch to putting twili’s on my standard Cabelas diver rods but for some reason still haven’t gotten around to it. I’ve used the twili’s on other boats and they work well.

It’s easy. Take a lighter to heat up the tip and remove. Don’t get carried away with the heat just enough to liquify the glue and remove the tip. Get some hot melt glue and install the Twilli. I vote twilli also.
