I just completed extending the butt section of my rod, I didn't recover the blank with traditional cork. I decided to go with a nautical theme........ What do you guys think? Not as ugly as the Rattlr!

Interesting, are you going to clear coat it? Paracord or seine net rope?
Back to the snake rod, why go through all that work and not put better guides on it!

The ad says you can specify your hardware. Aren't those Fuji K Alconites, though? Maybe I'm mistaken.

He just sates in the write up that he mounted Fuji Alconites did say abot the series.
He even has the rattle that can be mounted.. 
I like the fact that he states he like building extreme custom rods, obviously found a nitch of his own.. 
Tight Lines! 
A poorly maintained reel can cost you fish, just like a dull hook, frayed lines, and a poor technique can..-

His ad states that these rods are for fishin, but I'm thinking that it would be a great conversation piece as a display. The ad also states the item is in CT, I would have put money on Texas.
To Charlie I clear coated it with an epoxy. posted pics in Tacklemaking section. It is 3/16" braided nylon.
