was asked by my Dads partner to find him a new rod for Xmas.
After 52 years milking and 40 as an AB technician his shoulder has been giving him a bit of jip and he was wanting a lighter more forgiving rod.
So I decided to build him one.
This was my 2nd rod build and i am well chuffed with the result.
Blank is a Kilwell Speed Jig. 7foot long and parabolic in nature.
Guilds Fuji KW
Reel Seat is a Fuji Palm.
Metalic blue and Silver underbinds with Black Over Binds.
I also added a Tiger Wrap between the fore grip and the first guild. Photo (last one) does not show it but it looks awesome. Shimmers and is holographic. Will have to take a video and post tonight.
Custom EVA Grips and a little bit of Bling.
Designed to match his Blue Avet HX.
Now if anyone who knows me or my Dad spills the beans watch out!!!
