Completed my first Reel Tech custom fishing rods. What better choice for a custom jig maker than a pair of custom Float Rods. These rods built on Rogue 1063 10’6″ 4-8# blanks. I have fished with this model before and they make an AWESOME float rod for fishing jigs for steelhead. The beauty of building a custom rod is that you can put the handle right where you want it, choose the guides you want, and the colors you want. These rods will be married to a pair of Shimano Stradic Ci4 2500’s. Together, they make a wonderful, pleasure to fish combo.
\nI chose REC titanium guides for these two rods. The guides are virtually indestructible and very light.

The seat is an American Tackle AERO comfort grip seat with carbon fiber foregrip and rear grip. I love the raised palm swell on the top of these seats. Very ergonomic and fits the hand like a glove. <\/p>\n

Rather than make a full rear grip, I decided to use the split grip design. I personally like the way this grip design looks and feels.

These rods came out just as I invisioned, and I anticipate that they are gonna bring alot of fish to the net!! <\/p>\n
