NEW rod build
Thouht I would share a few pictures of my rod build. It is a Seeker S775-8. 8 foot 80-100lb class rod. I went with the ribbed EVA rear and fore grip. Silver AT reel seat,Aftco silver tuna block and a perfection silver ball gimbal. I went with the AT chrome turbo boat guides. I'm missing the Aftco roller tip, I have been going back and forth with mudhole for over a week as they sent me the wrong size so I sent it back and still have not recived the right one !!!! But that's another story. I plan to put the first coat of thread master epoxy on tonight. I can't wait to put the 9/0 on it and catch some sharks!!!! Thanks for looking, And don't mind my daughter pink sheet.
Where did you get the ribbed EVA? How big of an i.d. do they come in?
Great rod!
I got the EVA off ebay. I has an ID of 3/4 I did ream it just a tad, but using the rubber cement method I dont think reaming it is even needed! Sild right down like butter.
been BUSY BUSY BUSY but I got it finished. I put the Aftco roller tip on tonight and MAN does that tip weigh the rod down! With the tip on it put's a slight bend in the rod! You can definitely feel the added weight with that tip on the rod when you pick it up and hold it. I was just curious how you all felt about the weight of the tip
