Guest Saqa Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 (edited) G'day Raiders Been so busy fitting out the "rumboat" lately that I haven't had a chance to post any new creations but have a look at this. The rod is 6' and for 24kg line class. This E-glass blank has a softish tip which helps in keeping an eye on the baits reactions and allows the target to mouth the bait without feeling any shocks from the rod tip. The butt section is extremely powerfull. I have built this one in the spiral wrap config using my exclusive custom heavy duty fixed guides with titanium nitride finish on the frame. The tip features a heavy duty flanged SiC ring and the frame also has the titanium nitride finish. I have used a machined alloy gimbal and a graphite seat with machined alloy hoods. This rod has been ordered for the jewfish social by one of the raiders. The prize I am giving away for the social will be built on the same blank. Please let me know your opinion on the prefered config, would you like to see this built for threadline, conventional OH or spiral wrapped.

Guest Jewel Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 I am not afraid, because fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate and hate leads to the dark side. Spiral we like not..mmm! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
