I'm thinking about trying (key word) to make myself a custom spinning rod this year. I know there are a few rod builders on the site and I'm curious how much time on average goes into making one. I'm thinking a 7' st. croix blank and a possible split grip. I am assuming that it is very delicate work to make it perfectly and it will take me a while.
My wife says that I can't spend the money on any higher end rods so this might be an alternative. Thanks for trying JPD lol
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
