The switch rod is done! Finally! I cant wait to get this baby out and chase some steelhead with it. Turned out pretty well I think. I hope that this tuturiol was helpful and entertaining. It was a bit of work doing all the photos and write ups but I'm glad I did it. I hoped it proved useful to both beginners and experienced rod builders. Sometimes its just nice to see the way that others do things. I certainly know that there are probably better ways to do some of the things that I did in this build, but the methods worked for me and the final product looks pretty good. Sorry these photos arent the best quality. I hope to take some good "glamour" shots next to the river when I get out. Thanks for following along.
