Hi everyone, I've decided that I want to take a stab at building my own fly rod. After doing a little research it seems that people really like the hook and hackle blanks. I'm thinking about getting their most inexpensive, Forecast rod building kit that comes with everything i need including a video.

My questions are these....

1. knowing nothing about building a rod can i realistcally build one with this kit and the information i can find on that video and the various websites?

2. I'm thinking about getting the 6'6 2 wt. I want something small for brookie streams and panfish. My question is, do you think i should get the 2 peice or 4 peice for a few dollars more? what would be easier to work with?
