2 MHX's and a St. Croix. The MHX decals I created myself (as the ones from Mudhole are uber-lame) and thanks go to dick for pointing me to some good decal paper that actually worked. The rods are all for me, hence why the handles are all the same.:

Very nice work. I have a great appreciation of the giude wraps you used here. I know they took some time.

I toyed with decorative butt wrap (fish net design) on my split handle rod, do you have any experience with that? I would like to gain some knowledge with the technique.

Again, very nice work.

Thanks for the kind words everyone.

Jigfishn - I haven't done a fishnet wrap but do a search out there on what's needed.  Decorative wraps are actually pretty easy to do, you just have to find how to start the pattern.

well done, the decals look fantastic.  The wraps look clean as well.   ;)

I likes, Bubba! The blue / silver on the MHX in particular. ;)

Nice work. I know what you mean about the Mud Hole decals. Not only are they unattractive, they are often creased or otherwise unusable anyway.

Nice work.  Won't one of you guys point me in the direction of that decal paper too?  Thanks.

White matte waterproof vinyl is what dick is referring to and is what I used. I tested clear and it worked but only if it were to be used on a light colored blank (i.e. white). Or if you painted the blank a light color right where you will put the clear decal.

Awesome! I really want to get started doing this..But can't figure out what to get!
