This is my second attempt at a closed wrap. (Forgot to take pictures of the first.) There is no way I could've done this without VW or Billy V.'s book. They make it simple for a newbie like me to pick up something like this quickly.

Great work Chris. Love the colors, and the pattern is perfect. The rod looks really thin so that makes the wrap even more impressive.

Thank all you guys very much. Mark, the rod is an American Tackle 10-17 lb. mag bass blank. The butt diameter of the wrap was 14 mm.
