This is a Cabelas IM7 graphite blank with Cabelas superloy guides and a Cabelas Tich tip. It has a Fuji trigger real seat and composite endcap cork.

This rod is a 6ft, medium weight, moderate-fast action casting rod. It is rated for 8-17 pound line and 1/4-5/8 lure. This is an excellent crankbait rod.

It has a hand wraped red and gold double laser butt wrap with matching guide wrapes.
I will also put your name on the rod above the wrap.

All thread and name are coated with Flex coat rod finish for durability.

This rod is for sale for $130 plus shipping. This is what I want for this particular rod so please don't make any lesser offers.

If you would like a different custom rod I would be happy to talk with you.

Thanks for looking.

This is an example of a name on a rod. This is the style of lettering I will use to put the buyers name on the rod. A protective layer of Flex Coat rod finish will be placed over the name to protect it from getting damaged.

nice job!!! i got into making custom rods too, how are you able to sell a custom rod that cheap?? for time and material i would have to charge atleast 150 to 180 for a rod like that.

Thanks HighDesertWolf, I don't make hardly any money off these rods if you figure how much time goes into them. I figure I will sell more if I try to keep the cost down. I have upgrades available if the buyer wants to put more money into their rod. I will put TiCH or SIC guides on as an upgrade and for casting rods I can do a handle upgrade with a Pacific Bay exposed blank reel seat and for spinning rod handle upgrades I have a TiCH and woven graphite reel seat that looks awsome. The upgrades come with the composite endcap front cork, but I put it on this casting rod because it is what I had.

Here is a picture of the Spinning rod handle upgrade.
