Just wandering how many of you guys build your own rod i hardly see post of rods built in the tacle forum?

[J.AkuHed]

Well far out! Happy and sad, I am not as involved as I once was.
I hope "they" can pull it off!

Well, there are quite a few of us who build rods. Some do custom rods as a side business. Some just build for themselves. We did a rodbuilding class a few years back. Perhaps need to do another.

[mr yellowtail]

Yes Mel, i'd be interested in learning instead of paying someone else to do it for me.

[Jureal]

Well, one person does not make a class but if there are others....then we may have to do it again.

[graya21]

i missed the last class you guys made i am always intrested in how other people do theirs rods i been building my own for the last year and a half it's been fun but would like to see and get tips on how other builders do their rods.

Rite now is fishing season! You should be out their fishing! But be out there researching finished rods, looking for rod actions, lengths, color & design, handle preference ect…

Building your wish list!

Interested in doing ACID?
(We have the ACID Master here!)

I guess I could do a series called “ mr yellowtail’s personal rod building class—online”?
This way when it’s time for the hands on class, you’ll have more time for the FOOD! (Better yet, you be teaching the class, and the instructors will have more time for the FOOD!)

Ah! But it only takes one person to ask the rite questions to answer for several others!

Ever shot a blank down the driveway covered in epoxy? I have! (760H My Tools, 5. Hypolon Inflater)

I did a series on my 760H online built, trolling for tips, got a few too!

I have three blanks sitting here waiting for some time to build!

On this design page(Super Seeker Kite/100# Design), at the bottom is a bunch of links to rod building that we did here on Senor Tuna.
Check it out!

First rain!(Well, First Fall Rain!)

[mr yellowtail]

Glenn, I have pretty much all the rods I need right now to fish with. I would just like to fill in a couple gaps here and there because you can never have enough rods right? For example, a popping rod.



I do have one acid rod, but haven't had the chance to hang anything on it yet. Hopefully i'll get the chance on the August trip.
