Hemingway Rod

[unfrozen]

This one is ready to ship to Florida. I've got a customer down in Tampa that has a 2 acre bass pond in his back yard loaded with +3 lb. largemouth. He shore fishes so I built him this rod based on his favorite author Ernest Hemingway. The blank is the Rainshadow IMB843 from Midwest Rod and Reel. This seven footer will give him plenty of casting distance. Guides were placed using the new guide concept with micros for running guides. The split grips were hand poured and turned using casting resin and blue and gold Pearl Ex powdered pigments.

Nice work! you really are liking casting and turning your handles. Be neat to see how the process works. *Firing up youtube*

There's probably something on youtube already but if I remember, next time I go through the process I'll record it and post something.
