Every year one of my construction clients sponsors an inshore tournament to raise money for the Make A Wish foundation. I build the trophies.
This year they are built on a RodGeeks C2SW70 blank. It's a medium moderate fast that has a soft enough tip to cast greenbacks and enough backbone to turn a bull red.
Wynn split grips and a CRB comfort casting seat. MicroWave Air guide train and metallic Green accents.

Very nice build. They would make a great silverminnow rod for reds.
The MicroWave Air Stripper guide. No insert to loose and it reduces line slap giving you 10-15 % longer casts.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210513/35a8979ce2424300d1806e696d1d5b3e.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210513/28780cd771310fd77ce9fb1971593b99.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210513/5b3d0fcfbb07890e4925e44c33357173.jpg)
