On Her Way Home

Finished Shane's rod and got it in the mail today. She is on her way back to Michigan. Hopefully she will be a good companion for Shane. I have to say this is probably my most favorite rod that I have built. Shane and I started talking two months ago about fiberglass, he asked me if I had time to finish a rod for him. A few days later I recieved a blank in the mail and I got started. This was a great project and I had fun.

Rod Specs:
7'6" 4wt 2/2 Swelled Butt Shane Gray blank
Joel Lemke Reel Seat
Custom Bamboo Ferrules made by Me
Charcol main wraps, tipped w/ sunburst, med brown.
Dipped Man-O-War Spar Varnish
