I have and Smitty (the shop owner and teacher) is a good friend of mine. He will show you the "how to's" of rod building for sure in the class and then you can return at any time for coaching, advice, whatever......its fun and you might learn how to make some beautiful rods! My favorite light weight conventional rod.....I built it with Smitty's help and you sure reap the reward when you hook fish on a rod you built yourself!
Enjoy and tell Smitty that BigFish says hello!
