OPEN for Business, The New Rod Building Forum

Welcome to the new Rod building forum. There are several here that make their own rods and some that build to sell as well. Here will be a place to exchange some ideas and thoughts on rod making....

(BTW - I am FAR from expert on this but my rods ARE getting better )

Talking Allright!

I'm really glad to see this forum!. I've been building rods for 10-12 yrs. now and will be glad to pass info on and help people 'roll their own'- catching fish on tackle you've made is a seriously good buzz- and wrapping rods is 'the second best thing to do on a long winters night'. Lets have some fun!
