Rod building, what have you made or plan to make?

[snook.hooker]

I plan to make a spinning rod out of a 9' 8W fly rod, changing the 2 eyes closest to the reel, to get extra casting distance. I'd like to get a noodle or hot shot from G Loomis, but can't afford it right now...

Has anyone done this? any tips or hints for me?

Thanks in advance,
