manitoubass2 Posted October 19, 2015 Report Share Posted October 19, 2015 (edited) Id never, ever, ever fish that rod. Seriously looks like its worth more then the batmobile(and possibly one of its weapons?) Edited October 19, 2015 by manitoubass2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiel Posted October 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2015 Thanks again guys. Any idea on how scratch resistant the acrylic is? It does appear Mike as though it'll scuff easily. I made the owner aware of this before putting it all together. He's not worried as he travels with a pouch over rod and reel at all times with of course the exception of when he's fishing. As for treating scuffs and scratches, I have a few ideas to try if needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aplumma Posted October 19, 2015 Report Share Posted October 19, 2015 Just tell him to cover it in hockey tape and it will protect it. Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fish Farmer Posted October 19, 2015 Report Share Posted October 19, 2015 (edited) Might be able to wash the minnow scales off easier than cork. I'd be worried about the fish slim on my hands from, Sheephead, Catfish, and the rest, rod would fly out of my hand. Look nicer with a black spinning reel, Mitchell 300 comes to mind. Another masterpiece, one of a kind You seem to out do yourself bud Edited October 19, 2015 by Fish Farmer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
