QUAD BABY QQQUUUAAADDD go with a PMQ and have a little fun, no it's not the famous hex rod and it doesn't fish the same or feel just the same but it is cheap as dirt compared to building hex rods. If you want to give it a try and see how you like it before you drop several hundred to a couple grand on materials and such. Get a good plane, get some decent boo, do a little research (or send me a PM and I'll get you as much info as I have handy) and have a good time for goodness sake.
