  • Dad/Daughter Project

    The kid and I built our first rod over the past few days and it was a fun project. It's a 6' rod that I think will make an excellent rod to throw spinner baits with in the lake. The threads darkened up on me after the finishing glue was put on and I'll try a color preserver on the next one. That Olive Green sure looked good! Live and Learn!

      To me those dark spots bring out the rod even more. Great job. I remember the first rod me and my dad built in the early 70's. A little battered now but still works great.

        Doesn't matter how it turns out, you were building a memory for your daughter along with the rod!

                          Thanks everyone! We had a great time and the second blank is here, but no time to get started on it right now....

                          If you need some help getting started go see Chris at Serious Tackle or Terry at FTU.
