| I've already built 3 rods but I'm excited about this one. It's a Dan Craft Signature V 9044 blank. I've never casted one but after all the reviews I've read this rod is a treat and is comparable to the big boys, Sage, Winston, etc. It was also a great price, $86 with a 20% discount. I've got titanium coated guides, super cork grip, cocabola wood insert, and a titanium reel seat skeleton to match the guides. Total bill $162 plus my time. I'm not sure what colors I'm going to wrap it in but I'm going to try and be a little bit more fancy than the other rods I've done. |

Only if you lose your nice fly rod in the Wind Rivers, and have to resort to Wal-Mart's casting rod. Other than that, nope. :2thumbs: |
