Next is a cannon of a rod I had made up by a local builder. Lamiglas GSB 1321 L, with 4" cut off the tip to stiffen the action and increase the lure size. ~10'8" in length. 24" from butt to center of seat. All black wraps with a blond mermaid.

I also had a nice cork grip installed ahead of the seat which provides a firm purchase when working bigger lures. Fuji guides (50mm collector and 16mm Alconite tip) and seat.

I'd rate this with a sweet spot of 2-4 ounces. It will toss a 3 ounce needle a long way. Great for big plugs and heavy surf.

Condition is good, never abused but the rod shows some wear on the surface although nothing deep. $145. Local pickup.

It's the rod on the right in the post above.
