Another TRANSLUCENT WHITE fiberglass fly rod in the making

Epoxy to the guide wrappings of the 2 bait casting rods is really time consuming. I tried to shorten the time for epoxy by applying thicker coating to the wrapping threads but it turn out bad. A big lump of epoxy around the wrapping.

In order to get a nice epoxy coating around the wraps, the epoxy must be thin and have to coat it at least 4 times. Having said that , the 2 bait casting are still in the process of epoxy coating.

While waiting, I am starting another fly rod. Another translucent white flt rod. I just managed to fix up the cork grip which I turn myself and a down locking reel seat with maple wood insert.

Next, finding color for the wrapping......
