Nice looking and so so light

I’ve been working on getting these rods just right. I’m changing the decal a little since they messed it up in printing and have to reprint them after I called and gave them my order over the phone😑. As you can see they are feather lights for a 7ft UL rod with all premium Fuji components. After I add the decal, hook keeper, trim bands and the flex coat it really won’t add much weight to the rod. Ball park a 10th of a oz I’m guessing. The difference in weight comes in what the handle is made of. The win grip ( 2.34oz) the cork was (2.39oz) and the Eva was (2.5 something oz) To give you a idea of weight that castaway is a 5ft6in UL witch came in at 2.58oz. When I get the decals in I’ll finish them up and let the cat outa the bag.

Looks great!
Right now they just look naked to me. After I get the decal, hook keeper and trim bands on, it will pull the hole rod together and have a clean sleek look to it. Waiting on this decal is maddening. Lol I feel like I have checked my mail box 500 times in the last 3 days
well the decals have been reshipped should have them in the next 2 days hopefully. Im working on one that is flirting with the 2oz mark, hopefully comes out under 2.2 oz finshed. but that rod is just not a realistic price point. I did it just to try and build one at 2oz or less and it came out right at 1.9 in just the components.
Only thing it’s missing now is the fish measurement band but depending on what state it goes to it will change so that awaiting its owner and a second finishing coat of flex coat and their ready. After I take some better pictures I’ll be putting them in the classification with info on them.

nice rods & wraps
check out Matagi Fishing Workshop 釣り工房マタギ 完全なるロッドパーツの世界 - order their catalog (free) - they carry a lot of UL guides and blanks that you can't find in the US. I got it mostly for Aji and Mebaru style rods. Translation button is upper right on the screen.
Nice windings and nice bright colors. Good work.
Creativity is just intelligence fooling around
Nice looking feather!
