Rod built on a Burkheimer blank that was designed and built just for me by Kerry Burkheimer. The reel seat and butt cap are California Buckeye burl. The guides are agate that I made while working for Snake Brand Guides.

Really nice job on this one Tom. I like the simple diamond and the colours are excellent.

Very classic and classy. Really cool that you made the guides and with agate inserts to boot!
