I'm still speechless... I will let the pics speak for themselves. I did my best to showcase this build. The lighting wasn't cooperating. Before I go into the pics and specs, Lee... brother, thank you sooo much!! You were not kidding when you said this rod was going to look like a real classy  ^-^ ...  lo


Specs: This blank is a PB 701MHF. Split carbon fiber handle, Torzite guides, Alps MVT reel seat, and spirally wrapped.









The rod is paired with a Shimano DC Metanium , and the outfit will be geared towards reaction baits primarily.



Absolutely beautiful. Thanks again Lee!!  ~c~ ~c~ ~c~



Can't wait to fish it!!  ~gf

The ideas are endless Zippy.  You have an idea, and Lee will do his very best to get it done for you.
I love frogging and he figured out how to put a bass chasing after a frog on my first build.
