My Dad & I build custom rods. Our store/shop "Snake River Rods" is in Burley, ID. Are there any other rod builders around? Any newbies or antone wanting to learn?
My website "The Rod Builder's Library" is free to all and the link is below. TONS of tutorials on custom rod building posted solely to promote the craft and help others learn.
New here and saying Hi!

Hey I am glad that you found this site. I have built 2 rods, one 2 piece and a four piece. I am going to start a new one here this winter I think. I am looking for some nice blanks, adn I am going to go with some titanium guides. Any idea where i can get a pretty good price on both? Do you make your own reel seats?

Do you have a web site that you put pictures on of your reel seats and grips?
