4th custom rod

Post by vinnieb729 » Tue May 06, 2014 2:01 pm

Here's my 4th custom rod. A 684 K2. Ti Sic KB size 4 guides, the 5.5 stripper and tip are Ti Torzites. Has a Painted Mudhole SK2 seat. The Metanium XG has all the gold Hedgehog trim and air BFS bearings…a semper-fi handle/knobs w/bearings…since I lack the skill for the fancy inlay thread work, I make up for it with sparkly thread to distract you…hope it works!
The Met also has a Gold Avail shallow spool and 12 lb Tatsu line.

Good job for your forth. Fancy thread work won't make the rod perform better it just adds more weight generally.
