These are my first two bass rods, please don't mind they aren't the cleanest right now as the have been in my boat! I previously built 2 fly rods before building any bass rods. The first bass rod was an MHX MB873 I built last summer the week of the 4th.  Just figured a general purpose rod would be hard to mess up, turned out pretty good, fishes great, use it mostly for jigs or small swimbaits.

 

 

 

 

The second rod I finished this Spring, It was a Rainshadow Immortal IMMS72ML, very happy with this blank. Used an Aero reel seat, and airwave guides system. Very comfortable to fish, and this is the most sensitive finesse rod I own by far. Also have and MHX 7' MH Crankbait rod that is just finished and waiting on a tip to arrive.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks for checking it out! I'll Post the new Crankbait rod once it is finished. Still new to this and have a lot to learn. Having fun and getting more comfortable with every build so far. I tend to keep them pretty simple.

very nice work, great looking.... how do you like the Rainshadow blank?

Thank you very much! I love it, very Impressed with it, I didn't specifically go for a very light build, but that's how it turned out!

That blank is quite a light power blank.  Very nice if that's what you want. I use mine for Neds most of the time.  Would also be good for walleye jig fishing, light jigs vertical, leeches or minnows.  Which is what is was designed for, I believe.  I have CCS if anyone wants it.

Yeah I mostly use it for very light shaky heads I pour or Neds. Makes a good Neko rod for my uses too.
