BSL CRB iS blank UL rod

Another UL spinning rod made.

This UL rod was built from CRB iS blank.

This IM6 blank is a 1 pc 5'6" rated at 2-4lb.

This split grip is using a mixture of cork grip and EVA fighting butt.

Graphite arbor was used to secure the spinning reel seat to the blank.

Assembly of the handle in progress

Handle completed.

Next will be the guides, but before that I added a "instant" deco weaving just above the fore grip.
Slot it in and finish up both sides of the deco weave sleeving and we are go to go..

Deco weaving done.

 Fuji guide with black wrapping and gold trimming.


All done and epoxy next,..

Straight forward and simple.

The rod was sent to the owner and tested it.
When I asked him "how was the rod?" He show me this...


What a good catch!!!!!
