new stick

[fisheye]

Pictures aint great, but I love this rod . . . an 8' 3/2 FE Thomas taper (5wt.) My all time favorite taper, even sexier than the Granger 8040. Don't have photos of the custom grip, but she shure throws some sweet line. Buckeye burl, blued hardware, agate, . . . the works. Had a blast building this one.

Nice looking rod! I really do like the look of that reel you have attached to boo rod! What make and model is the reel?

Looks like one of the new Hardy Perfects.

Oh, and for what it's worth, the name really does describe the reel...
