everything you should need to know will be on youtube, after that it's
practice practice practice :wink:

you might want to forget about building your own and get a one off rod from this guy, he started building rods in 2008 and the stuff he is doing is what you call custom rods, i dont think there is what you could class as a custom rod maker in ireland when you see this gear :wink:
