I finished up my rod build this past Sunday.
The rod is made to fish stand-up style, with 40 - 100 lb class tackle.
Silver and Blue....sure hope she doesn't hook-up interceptions - DOH!
Blank is a CALSTAR GF700XH (graphite & eglass composite)
American Tackle aluminum butt & reel seat
Fuji Titanium "Low Rider" SIC guides
EVA grips
UB-40 2 part epoxy rod build cement
Thread Master thread epoxies
Flexcoat color preserver
Madeira & Pro Wrap nylon threads
The reel is an AVET HX 5/2 MC Raptor 2-speed spooled with 650 yards of 80lb test Momoi Diamond braid line.
I'll add a 25 - 100 yard section of 50 - 80lb test Fluorocarbon as top shot and she's ready to fish!
