Ordered a Sevier Tiger Eye 6' for 2/3 wt 2 piece blank from Schneider Rods yesterday.

Will pick up the components, a St. Croix reel seat and grip combination, black single foot guides, tip top and hook keeper, and black thread this morning from Jimmy's All Seasons Angler in Idaho Falls.

Plan to take more time and care on this one to end up with a nicely finished small stream rod. Should be able to finish building it by the end of next week and get it out on some of the creeks around here the following week.

From everything I've read about the Tiger Eye blanks this rod should be nearly perfect for my casting style, and it should be a real kick to fish for bows and cutts mostly in the 8" to 12" range, but up to 18", on some of our small streams.

Really looking forward to building this one and fishing it !!
