LOOP 890-4

Took this off the dryer this morning. I've had two of these blanks in an 8wt and a 10wt that I've been waiting to build when time allowed. Threw the 8wt on the bench the other night and knocked it out.
This one is the 8wt 9' LOOP Cross S1 blank. Wrapped in a desert tan to match the tan colored Winn grip that I decided to go with.
Black pearl recoil guides and used American Tackle reel seat in black with carbon fiber insert. Finished with Flex Coat Light build.
This rod is for sale if interested.

TWINS

Two recent Blue Halo builds that have been completed. One is a gift to a gentleman who helped guide a fundraising event for Veterans with head trauma. The other is for sale.

Both rods are built on Blue Halo fiberglass blanks and are 7'6" 3 wt's.
Wrapped in Charcoal thread to match the Charcoal color of the blanks.
Recoil Black Pearl stripping guides with black snake guides.
Winn Charcoal colored grips with black reel seats.

Charcoal Glass

The next two builds will be twins.
Both blanks are Blue Halo 7'6" 3wts in Charcoal color.
Black Pearl Recoil Guides wrapped in Charcoal thread with Winn Charcoal colored grips.

SO-BLUE HALO

Finished the 8' 5wt Blue Halo fiberglass build. The color is So Blue that it looks like a light saber in the sun.
Custom carbon fiber wrapped grip with blacked out reel seat with a carbon fiber insert. Guides are Black Pearl Recoil.
Wrapped the guides in white silk thread to give it the clear look like I was wanting. Actually looks like only the finish is holding on the guides.
This is going to be a fun trout fighting rod to fish.
