Hello,
I am wanting to give this rod building a try. I wish I could find some local classes but I live here in Kansas and have had no luck. So to get to my question where do I began. I mostly fly fish but was wanting to maybe give my first rod a try with a spinning rod for a saltwater So, where do I even began??
