    Default 7'6" Sevier 5wt.

    Here is 7'6" 4pc 5wt I built for fishing 3 of my favorite small rivers, the Couer D' Alene, St.Joe, and Rock Creek. All of these are very similar in that easily wadable but the wind can be a factor making lighter weight rods difficult to use. The reel seat is BUL5 with spalted birch burl insert, brown/black carbon fiber grip, Pac bay snake style stripper and black Pac Bay SF wire guides. The wraps are Gudebrod Gold with Fishawk green metallic.









    The decal is a picture of a cuttie that came out of the Joe and as you can tell I combined all 3 in the name of the rod.

    A friend is not who knows you the longest, but the one who came and never left your side.

    Don't look back, we ain't goin' that way.

    Seiver makes rod sales possible. Since I found Seiver MFG I can now afford to build rods that sell. His prices are so reasonable and quality so respectable that I can build good custom rods for the average buyer and make a reasonable profit.

    baitwaister,

    Looks like a lot of work went into the detail of the wraps! Very nice.

    Best regards, Dave S.
