Pier Rod (Shark Bait Rod)

Been sitting up at school not fishing, so I've been building some rods for when I get home to fish.
This one is a Gator T90XH that's going to paired with an Avet LX.
9 foot, 30-50, used Fuji HB Silicon Nitride boat guides, these sit lower than a normal boat guide and I really like them better than the foulproofs ive been using.
Mainly to be used for pier fishing, but it should be able to handle blacktips from the surf.
Did a diamond chevron buttwrap which made me crosseyed from looking at it to much. Color and wrap remind me of the Riddler.
Green and purple to go with the purple Avet.

Studies show that fish prefer to be caught by purple reels.
