Hi John and all,
I built my first rod from a Fenwick 9' 8W blank when I was kid in
Monahans. Since then I have restored 2 bamboo rods and rebuilt a couple of
fiberglass fly rods. I hope to scrounge up enough money to buy some blanks
in the 6' to 7'6" 3 to 5 weight some time so I can build some special rods
for the girls and me.
Not nearly as active in it as some on the group, or wish I could be at it.

I am just curious as to how many people on here are into rod building . I
got into it december of 2003, since then I have built a lot of rods. So far
for myself I have built:
6'6" rainshadow 2 wt (my favorite rod)
7' Dancraft 1 wt (just finished, have not fished it)
a 9 ft bamboo 4wt
a 5 ft 1 wt bamboo
a 10' tiger eye 8/9wt (salmon rod)
a 5 piece 9' dancraft 9065 (smallie fishing)
a 9 ft matrix 8 wt
3 bass spinning rods
and I am starting two 6'6" ultralights (for a buddy)
John
