Steffen 8' 6/7wt
Steffen 8' 6/7wt, 3pc fly rod blank build, featuring flor Ritz grip turned on the blank, and Struble U22 reel seat hardware with integrated fighting butt. The insert is made of the matching fiberglass tubing. Guide wraps are made with jasper silk thread with rusty NCP accents on the butt and the tip top. Multiple coats of spar poly were used on the wraps.
The rod should be a perfect tool for chasing smallmouth bass with larger streamers and popping bugs!

I am working on a special project Unstructured Glass rod build after a long time. The Garrison-style handle and reel seat were completed last night. The pics of the finished rod coming up soon!
