Nice touch with the padauk rings to bring the color into the grips.

Mark, you are truly an artist. You can take the simplest things and make a masterpiece. But what is padauk?

Terry and Ellis Thanks for the kind words. Ellis the orange wood in the reel seat is Padauk. It's a type of exotic wood from Africa and Asia, I really like the orange tint with this wood.
