Thanks guys!

Bill that site that comes up right away is my usual suppler for cord. According the website a ton of colors are out of stock. I checked Atwood Rope CO and they are out of stock of many colors in the appropriate size for grips. I'm not sold on paracord though I'm sure it would be fine. I found tarred seine line, I'm going to give that a try for the black grips. Then for blue I found a random spool of stuff that might work well while searching around an online @#$%& site. It doesn't say anything about rod building but it is a decent diameter and 100% polyester. The price was decent so we'll see if it works out.
