I just finished a custom century s1 stealth 10' with 6" off the tip. I did the butt/reel seat with Paco grips using that rubber free cork you gave me billy with a Fuji ergo seat.

I used LC guides, rod is built for a vs 150.

The action is so much better with 6" off the tip, fast recovery and more hook setting power.

I did the layout but had CMS do the wraps and crosswraps in rasta colors. They did an amAzing job.

I just don't have the time to wrap my own stuff with the new restaurant open.

I'll post some pics

I also had them do crosswraps on a bunch of my rods, they only charge $25-30 for a 10" cross wrap with 4 colors. A deal in my book

My next build is to redo the century spod rod. It's 12' now and I never use it.

Going to make it 11'4" or 11', have to play around with it.

I used 1 k frame, then LC guides to single foot bm guides, the rod is great it just never gets used, and they changed the blank so it's going under the knife
