    Default 8ft 3/4wt 4pc

    Just finished this one up today. This one is an 8ft 3/4 4pc dark green blank with an amboyna burl insert and nickle silver hardware. The grip is a mix of all exotic corks and green trim, then I coated it with 6 coats of marine grade spar varnish sanding it between each coat to get it smooth. Wraps are black with NCP white trim, inserted stripper and SF guides finish it out.

    My taste generally runs to simple "traditional" cork grips, but I got to say the grip on this rod is STUNNING. Nicely done, Steve.

    Nice grip. The contrasting wraps are very striking, it looks good.
