This one is for a fellow Irish customer. I say "fellow Irish" because I come from a long line of Murphy's on my moms side The blank is a Pacific Bay Rainforest II series (green of course) 9ft 5wt 4pc model. The reel seat and grip are both matching dark wood as requested by the customer. Both the seat and grip are coated with Threadmaster and were hand buffed between each coat to give them a deep gloss finish. I ended up with 3 coats on them.

Seat hardware is Nickle Silver BUL5, Pacific Bay single foot guides, dark green wraps with CP, metallic gold trim, a base layer of black under the inscription, and a very Celtic style font round it out.
