Want to build your own fishing rods?
For those of you that might be interested in learning how to build your own fishing rods, I’m going to start a series of posts/pictures to go into it in more detail. Several have read my article on the subject and after answering a lot of questions, I figured I might as well put those emails to good use.
This will be geared for the beginner and it will be a series of posts with pictures to walk you through building your first fishing rod. This will also allow you to do it on a low budget, which is how I started. I recently finished building a spinning and conventional rod and made it a point to take about 50 digital pictures as I went along. These pictures should be very helpful to anyone who’s been thinking about taking the plunge and to any beginning rod builder.
I’ve got the pictures formatted and will start putting together the initial posts on selecting a blank, getting started with the list of tools needed etc, but check in regularly as I’m not on any schedule. I would guess the first post should go up sometime next week.
traffic jam
Uhhhhhhhh Bob.......you don't want to jam up the regular board with a long rod thread? You get 2 f&^*& posts a month on this board normally. I suspect we "regulars" (all 3 of us) will be able to wade through the extra traffic.
Sorry, maybe I'm just cranky because my mommy wouldn't let me go out to play tomorrow. Go get em.
