Here are some pics of the completed rod, after finish was applied, and dried...ready for delivery.
Note the wraps, and how they have darkened to blend in with the rod blanks' colour.
The finish was carefully applied to ensure straight lines, minimal bubbles and a mirror finish.
The perfect finished product. Not too over the top, very traditional, yet totally unique in design
with a beautiful Wild Olive wood spacer in the reel seat.
Thank you for taking the time to see the journey of a custom built fly rod. I hope you enjoyed it. Now go fishing!
