This is my first build with my new 0wt 7'6" blank!! Casts great!!! A 7lb trout tried to take it away from me at RRiver a couple weeks ago!! Matched it up with a nice TFO reel from Tim!! SWEET!!!! The reel seat is piece of 5500 year old Bog Oak.

Howdy Murdoc, I had to google bog wood fo find out what keeps it from decaying. Some pretty neat stuff.Like all of your products, I am sure this new rod is another work of art.

Hey Laker, Good to hear from you!!!! Hope your doing well!! This wood is from Russia. They say it got buried in mud slides and they dig it out from about 200 to 500 feet down. It turns just like our Oak but is just black in color. I couldn't get it glass smooth but still looked good. Thanks!! Merry Xmas!!!
