I have built and epic 580 in olive for my sons first birthday. I cannot wait for the day I watch him cast his rod. I dream we spend many trips and share many memories flyfishing. I wish he learns that we flyfish not for the fish only, but for the bond of father and son.
After wanting to build my own rods for a very long time now, a lot of videos give instructions but are very overwhelming. This video just gave me the confidence to build my own!
Turned out well... aren’t you supposed to not wipe on the first coat of finish and instead dab the finish on? Did you get many shiners from brushing it on like that?
Given that time needs to be allowed for epoxy and finish to dry no - 24 hrs at least. There's around 6 - 8 hrs involved in building a fly rod with our kits
Why do you build on the spine? For casting, or fighting the fish? I understand building a golf club on the spine because you hit the ball on the swing plane every time. Fighting a fish is never in the same plane 2x’s so it doesn’t make sense to me. Why not build on the straightest axis?
