Just finished building my first fly rod, and it was a blast doing it. It's a 4 piece, 7-weight Forecast RX-6 that I picked up at Cabela's. The rest of the components are from Hook & Hackle. The reel seat is rosewood, and the guides are SIC.
A friend from our fly club helped me plan and build it. I asked everybody questions when I was planning the rod, including folks here on the board, and Ron from H&H. I really appreciate everyone's advice and support. Can't wait to get it on the water.
