The work is nice. The only thing I would change is the uplocking reel seat if that is a spinning rod. I would be a bit more comfortable.

You just can't keep a good Idaho man down. Nice work Larry. How far from Silver Creek are you?

Ray it looks very good. There isn't much to change, the only thing I like to do is give the handles a some curves on the back grip. I think that it makes for a more comfortable grip that way.
