A few new rods I've put together over the winter. The spinning rods look at bit dirty, as I've been using them the past week.

Feel free to send me any comments or suggestions!

Thanks!

6'9 Castway XP3, One of my favorite blanks. Incredible light and sensitive. Micro's and Sprial wrapped.

3mm Batson Micro Guide, I tried to show scale. I use these on all rods, both spinning and casting. For spinning rods, I use traditional guides to my choke, and run micros from choke to tip.

7' Castaway XP3 blank. Swimbait or possible C rig rod.

6'6 Batson RX7

7' XP3 Shakey/Drop Shot rod. Very solid back bone on the bottom section of the blank, but lots of action in the tip.

6'6 All Star Blank

It must be AWESOME. To be able to build the exact rod that you would like anytime you want. Wow the ***

I for one like what I see. What seat distance do you have on the casting rod? Did it balance?

Great looking rods Brian, really like those micro guides. Looks like someone has been reel shopping too.

Best of luck to you moving down south, don't be a stranger.

I typically shoot for around 10 inches, but the caster above is at 8 inches.  Its primarily a spinnerbait/Lipless crank rod, so the I liked the shorter handle for quick underhands, pitching, rollcats, etc..

Thanks Blaine, when I get settled you guys are gonna have to come down!

sweet rods,  :)I love the low profile wrap look, thats how I plan on doing my own rods. What are you using the 6.6 batson rx7 spinner for and how's it doing? (looking into one of those myself)

I've been using it for tubes, worms, senko's, etc.. and its pretty sweet.

Thanks Blaine, when I get settled you guys are gonna have to come down!

Roadtrip X 2!!!  I'll take hold of Blaine's back pocket... ;D

Lol, you'll have to fight AJ over Blaines back pocket
