Turnin more rods

[TTU Wader]

Finished up another rod last week. It's a 6'6 IM8 blank from FTU. Very light blank, They call it a light but to me it's more of a medium light with a moderate fast action. I used black eva foam for the grips and slapped some recoils on it. The reel seat is the split pac bay seat.









This is one going to be a medium action rod for big plugs for my dad...

Well done and looking good.

Very nice Alex!

Those look awesome!

Is that the BSRT66L blank? I've built three out for myself and a buddy, and it's an amazing blank! I built all mine with micros, and they came out super light. I've caught some big fish on mine, lot's of grunt.

Nice job Alex! Those recoil guides are the best-they don't break.

[Gilbert]

you are becoming a rod making machine. Nice work.

[Curmudgeon]

Those look sweet Alex! I'd like to see those in person!

Anyone want this rod? Brand new condition. Maybe used 2-3 times. 100 bucks. Just the blank and recoils cost over 100... And for 5 dollars I'll even put a decal with your name on it.

how long is the handle?

[Curmudgeon]

You bet! How much extra to add some markers for measurements?

[TTU Wader]

Roughly 7.5". I'll measure it when I get home.

Yes I could put measurements on for a few bucks

I'll give Gilbert the first shot since he'd probably take it anyway, but if he doesn't get it I will.
