Well....not much to see yet....but here are some pics.
I'll probably start on the guides tomorrow. I just got the reel seat and foregrip epoxied on the rod yesterday.

Here's a link to a template for guide placement for wrapping an "Acid wrap" or spiral wrap rod.

Minnow,

What type rear handle on the new 5 1/2 ft 80lb spinning rod full or split grip?

Minnow · 03-10-2008, 09:26 AM

Papaio,

The spinner will have a full grip.

papio · 03-10-2008, 09:39 AM

Also, how long the rear handle from end of reel seat on down?

Minnow · 03-10-2008, 09:49 AM

I don't have the spec on hand, will post picture and spec late this evening.
