ST.Croix 7'6" 4wt SCIV

This one is for a customer that is planning on getting his wife into fly fishing with him so I came up with this which hopefully will pass the color coordinating eye of the fairer sex. Blank is a Burgundy color St.Croix SCIV with a dark wood reek seat insert and matching wood accents on the rev half wells grip. Nickle silver BUL5 hardware and a Hopkins & Holloway stripper guide round out the hardware. For the wraps I used Gudebrod red&black classic twist (CP) and then did two turns of silver metallic on the outer edge of the wraps and single turn metallic silver on the inner edge of the wraps.

Steve I love the looks of the grip she will love it

MCFR,

If this rod clashes with her vest or the laces on her wading boots, it will go nicely with one of the rod tubes I have. Just sayin! LOL!! Nice build. Unfortunately (for me), I’m sure it will more than satisfy her discerning taste. Hey, can’t blame a guy for trying. Right!

Best regards, Dave S.

If you keep this up and I will have start returning some bottles so you can build me a rod.:smiley:
