sailfish White blank build

Built this for a guy in South Texas. He was very pleased with the outcome. That white blank and red was CRAZY flashy. He wanted 15 micro recoil guides. Way over the top and thats what he wanted. VERY COOL WHEN IT WAS ALL SAID AND DONE. It took everything not to just keep it for myself.

Love it! I've always wanted a White rod. It reminds me of an old white Shakespere popping rod that my dad had with a Red Ambassadeur 5000 on it. You just don't see any white rods anymore.

I like white, the thread colors stay true.

That's pretty nice, but it would be a lot prettier if it was ORANGE and WHITE, nice rod.
