Unfortunately I just broke my trusted Oni type 1 rod tip. This has been my go to rod for 10 years and I’m heartbroken. Is there a source for Oni parts in the USA?
Thanks for any help.
Sorry to hear it, I know how you feel. Earlier this season I ordered some Oni Type I parts from the TENKARA ONI SHOP
Shipping to the USA was ~$40, but as far as I know this is the best way to get Oni rod parts.

Thank you, I probably will just order from JP. I have been very lucky and have not broke a rod in a long time. Today was the exception…

Tyson — I have a spare Type-I tip in Bishop (thanks again for the recommendation!) that I can sell you for whatever Oni is charging on his site when I’m back in town at the end of this month if you’re interested, just to get your rod back on its feet ASAP. I would be down to split shipping on additional spare parts/tips/etc from Japan to Bishop anytime also. Let me know if that’s of interest

PS let’s get out fishing in your zones sometime!

That would be fantastic Andy! I try to get out fishing almost every weekend, especially back country during the summer. We went to Tyee 4-5th lakes yesterday it was great out. I’m sure I’m significantly slower than you though.
Awesome — I’ll drop by your office or send a PM when I’m back in town at the end of the month. Talk soon!
