    Default 8' 4pc 5w St Croix SCIII

    The reel seat insert is of Olive Wood from Bethlehem. (I get it direct.) It is in American Tackle UL5 hardware. The grip is Flor grade cork and mixed burls with Olive Wood accents. The stripper is also from American Tackle being one of their snake type strippers. The single foot guides are wrapped with medium brown thread and tipped with bronze. A junglecock inlay finishes things off.

    My supplier is in Bethlehem. The postage is Israele on the package and the wording is in both Hebrew and English. Pretty fast, too. The packages get here as quickly as most local stuff and faster than some.
