Finished Mom's crappie rod. I used Forecast components from Al and Bill at Midwest Rod and Reel. I used a 7' RX7 IP840 blank, pipe style reel seat, Chrome guides using NGC and Forhan locking wrap. I turned the grips using pine. The decal of Elvis was applied over a white thread wrap. The name was done using a tutorial I found that was authored by Dave Rogers. Under the name decal I did a tiger wrap with white/black underlay and gold Gudebrod as the top color. In the sunlight the name realy pops. And yes...she said she'd go fishing now.
