Hi all, I really like some of the fish wraps I've seen in the photo gallery. Is there a book/video that has the basic steps involved in creating the wrap? Thanks, Kneale

I need some advice/help regarding a trim wrap I am attempting. I am trying to do a single wrap of Pac-Bay metallic gold thread on my guide wraps. I am using one of the methods detailed in Clemens "Advanced Rod Building" book. It starts by taping a pull thread and the trim wrap thread in place before doing the actual guide wrap. My problem starts when I'm finished with the guide wrap

Stupid question time! Does painting the rod affect how it handles? Eventually I'd like to be skillful enough to build a rod using a Sage or Winston blank, but I would hate to shell out a few hundred bucks and find that I change how the rod handles. Thanks for all your posts, you guys are great!

Hi all, I am VERY new to rod building and I was wondering if anyone could tell me where I could find a Purple colored Fly rod blank. I am hoping for around 8'6 in a 2 or 3 wt. I appreciate your insight/advice. Kneale
