 Interesting custom project I made exactly 10 years ago.

9’5” 2wt 4pc CTS blank that I found in a builder, 

along with bunch of other CTS and Diamondbacks Classic Trout blanks.

The remark was on that the upper two sections were equal, but a bit shorter than the first two sections.

Despite of this I decided to give that blank a chance and here is the result.

Snake Brand Universal guides

Custom cork handle 

Lemieux concept reel seat hardware with custom wood insert 

Marvellous rod for dry fly fishing or short line nymphing as well 














Hi,
