My friend Al who is a walleye/bass/muskie tournament fisherman convinced me to build him a walleye jigging rod. While I do some walleye jigging it is certainly not my expertise. This is a spinning rod built on SCIII blank and feature mirco guides and carbon split grip (of course).
Al has been initially very pleased with how the rod performs. So pleased we have discussed building him a casting rod (perhaps breaking rank part two?). He said it casts much more precise than the exact same blank built to factory specs (he now owns 3 of the 3S69MLXF blanks), really have to pay attention to where you are casting because that is exactly where it will go. A full review will be forthcoming after he has had a chance to log some time with it in tourny at Mille Lacs in a few weeks.
I've been really thinking these build techniques would work great on a muskie rod... The next project rod...
