I am looking for a CT builder who feels comfortable building a one-piece 11'0" spinning surf rod. Or someone within a 3 hr drive from Norwich, CT.
The blank will be provided. A CTS Vapor Trail 1103.
Nothing fancy. No weaving, etc.
But insist on nice wraps and clean level finish.
Customer will pick-up finished rod.
If interested email me: hladen@hotmail.com.
Regards
Herb

Hey herb, I live on the north fork of long island. I can build that rod for you. I do a lot of surf casting on north and south forks with my custom rods. I will email you some pictures later. When do you need the finished product by? MH
