Tight lines with this one too, Eivind.

I'm not a Sage guy, but just couldn't resist on that green.

Tried to give it different look with an agate stripper.

Pearsall's silk wraps on the stripper and Snake Brand Universal guides.

REC nickel silver reel seat with Buckeye burl spacer.

Custom turned handle with Five Star cork rings (quality much better than flor).

Epic 888 fly rod

This one is a "big boy".

Epic 8ft 8in 8wt 4pc fast glass

Snake Brand tip top and Universal snake guides

ALPS saltwater reel seat

Custom turned flor grade cork handle.

Custom alu tube, cork caps.

 

High performance CTS Affinity X 10ft 4wt 4pc

Actually, I finished the rod itself in January, 

but the rod cloth and the alu tube took me more time than I expected...

 Anyway, the outfit is completed  right now.

The blank is the fastest series that CTS offer for freshwater fishing. 

Fast action, without the feeling you are casting a stick.

High performance fly rod suitable for Euro style, short line nymphing, 

boat or high water casting when the extra rod length is needed.

The other components used are:

- Snake Brand Original guides and tip top in black nickel;

- Fuji stripping guide;

- Custom turned flor grade handle;

- Lemke reel seat hardware in champagne color with custom turned wood insert;

- Custom rod cloth and alu tube with cork and bamboo cap.

What you can find different here is the inscriptions finish, being applied only over the scrip.

As a matter of fact, I experimented the idea on that rod at first, after that on the Epic I posted previously.

Why I did it? Just cause I felt that way. In some way it is unique... What do you think?

SOLD!
