    Default 11' 9" 7/8wt Short Spey

    This rod is a rod for someone that wanted a "Short Spey" but couldn;t find the exact blank he wanted. So it is actually a 12'6" Batson blank that has been trimmed down to 11'9" overall length to give him the length/action he was looking for. Grips are custom turned undersize to fit his hands, seat is AW13 Amtak, Strippers are blue anodized rings, dble foot running guides, Charcoal gray wraps with electra blue metallic trim.

    Steve,

    I can't help commenting on your rods! Another very nice build. I agree with Kevin - that blue stands out, but not overbearing. Thanks again for your generosity with sharing!

    Best regards, Dave S.
