Rick: Proud of you. You really can't measure the satisfaction you get from using a rod you have constructed yourself. In my opinion, it is much greater than catching a fish on a fly which you have tied. I remember the first time I did that. I had thought previously that only other people could do those kinds of thngs. I impressed myself. As Martha Stewart would've said, "That's a good thing." What will you do next? More rods? Keep up the good works.

Then just have to put the reel seat and tip on and I will have another rod to use. This one is an 8' 6" 5 wt. I proabably wrapped this ont he best of the 3 rods and 4 wrapping obs I have done. Also put hook keeps on three other rods that did not have them. Rick
