Here's a couple I've got on the bench right now. One is for a buddy who is a guide down on the Mexican/Belize border. My very first pro staffer!!!! The other is one I'm building to take to the Keys with me in Feb.
The reel seat is delrin. As for the white, I've been building more "modern" styled fly rods lately. The grip is carbon fiber. When I was planning the build I knew I was going to be using it in the keys and I though I wanted to make the grip a lighter color so it wouldn't get hot in the sun. Then I thought "All White!" White seat, white grip, white wraps on a natural blank. It'll look like a storm troopers fly rod!Dig the Recoil guides! What is that reel seat insert material and the white grip?
