    Wow that is really pretty. Are those the standard Lamiglass ferrules? Nice use of the stripping guide, it looks light.I hope you don't take offense at some constructive criticism, I think it would look even nicer if you touched up the guide feet with black paint after grinding them.

    I have tried touching up the feet,however every method I tried,the color ran.They are not standard ferrules.I have Lamiglas make me custom blanks. I cut and ferrule them myself

    What are your e-glass rods like? Some guys around here like the old 7' 6" - 8' glass eight weight rods for steelhead.

    Mike,
    I've seen your stuff before, but every time I see a new one I get envious. Nice fish stick my friend. I REALLY like your reel seat.
    Where you go is less important than how you take the steps.
