    Default Tadpole Rod Swap Part 2...The Build

    As we speak, the rod components are in the hands of the Pony Express and getting ready to leave The Island Nation of Ohio. They were sent priority mail. Please post on this thread when they arrive at your humble abode. Once everyone has their package, we will decide on a new due date.

    Trouts don't live in ugly places.

    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.

    Got the rod and components today. Can't wait to get this sweet rod built! So what are the ideas going around regarding wraps?

    Mine might. Mine arrived in the PVC tube, only the top of the tube was missing. All that is left of the last inch or two is jagged, broken PVC, with the blanks inside actually exposed. At least they had retaped it so the contents didn't fall out, but someone really went out of their way to destroy it. I haven't had a chance to check the blanks yet, but it might be a bit of a miracle if they survived intact.
