Testing the WHITE glass

Finally I had my change to test it out..

Effortless cast with the 3WF line out around 30 feet and it's action was as usual... CRISPY!

A final touch before I pack it up in the rod sock.

Another follow up....

How about another one mouth watering photo of the fiberglass rod in action?

The PESOT glass fly rod follow up....

When they asked me about this blank I used to build that rod....

"How much stress can it take?"

I really can't tell..

But ... a picture tells a thousand words..

Really... You don't have to believe what people tell you when you can see with your own eyes..   :)

The PESOT glass fly rod

This ultralight glass fly rod is 6'10" and rated 2/3wt. 2 pieces with spigot ferrule.

The main feature will be the rattan wrapped grip and the engraved single sliding band reel seat.

Started off with the preparation of the rattan wrapped grip. That is how it look before finishing.

... and this is how it looks when completed with a few coat of SPAR urethane.

Then it was time to assemble the rod. The guides and hook keeper was wrapped with Pearsall's Jasper silk thread.

The fiberglass rod was finished with a few coat of poly urethane.

Another angle view of the completed rod.
