    Default Next Project 9' 5wt.

    Just ordered a 4 pc. kit from H&H and Bob swaped out the grip for a full wells (few bucks more).

    Soon all my go-to rods will be of my making!
    All I need next is a 7-71/2' 3 or 5 wt.

    And, before you ask, my store bought (Cabela's) rods will be donated not sold

    Hey guys,

    Glad to see others pursuing the lofty goal of an all self made quiver. It is a great feeling when you get to the point that you don't even care what the latest factory rods are since you won't ever buy one again!

    Ty...the 9' 3 wt IM6 H&H blank makes the best rod in that blank line that I have built.
    It is a stiff butted, soft tipped rod that reminds me somewhat of a Winston IM6.
    My biggest regret is I didn't buy better fittings when I built it but I didnt know how good it was gonna be.
    It has plenty of power yet it is a true 3 wt IMO.
    I'm am a man that is over stocked with 3 wt rods...its one of the best.
