Made for a local customer that had to sacrifice due to family issues, this rod was custom made and features full delicate 3-wrap intermediates in olive silk and executed in the old-time fashion(I counted over 90 on this 6'8" rod), bronze snakes guides wrapped in matching olive tipped black, medium flamed cane, gently swelled butt, very fine .058 tips(!)signature wrap, fully engraved maple burl reel seat, agate stripper, curly cherry hexagonal rod tube with hand-rubbed tung oil finish that has oxidized to a gorgeous red patina with curly maple end caps....this rod is a stunner
With a machined Aluminum Bar Stock build, the Backcountry is designed to resist corrosion while being lightweight and excessively durable
One minute youre reeling and feeling the crankbaits vibrations through the rod
It holds up great, it's smooth, it handles fish 3-4 lbs flawlessly
Water temps are climbing, fish are feeding early, and topwater season starts delivering some of the most exciting strikes in inshore fishing
