Need advice and/or referrals

Hello.  I have the lower (handle) half of a Fenwick Legacy UL fishing rod.   It's a 5'6" (LG55S   UL -2).
 
This part is in good shape.  
 
Any ideas on how I might be able to locate a top half somewhere?
 
Thanks in advance.
 
Jim

    I tried that.  The only response I got was "This is a discontinued item.  We do not carry parts or components."

    watch flea markets and old bait shops?
     
    Really, for waht you'll go through trying to find a replacement tip you might as well buy a new rod.

    I'd try just sending the rod back to Fenwick, not letting them know you called.  I'd bet they replace the rod with another.
