That was close Billy40, hard to tell from that pic. Notes? What are those. The last threads are.... ten blacks and six golds that form four small diamonds on top of the blacks. That wasn't the affect I was trying to do and I'm not crazy bout the FAT gold but at least I got other ideas for other rods. Put up a slightly different pic.

Bill, that blank was a 11' 6'' (Lami S-Glass, 1363M, 4-8oz). Now its a 10'10'' taken off da butt. As far as looks....being cranberry in color its definently a candy cane for the eye. Thanks Mr.Capesam

Thse re the things you always kick yourself for because you didn't scribble them down. Or you scribble them down, and have no idea what the heck you were thinking when you wrote them.

That is a nice wrap, I like more each time I look at it.
