here's my first attempt at building a FNF Rod. i used Cabala's IM 6 Fly Rod Blanks in the 5 wt. 8 1/2'. i made the Tn. grips with regular and brown Burl cork and the butt is a rubber ring. the Tn, Grip is for easier balancing of the rod's.

got bored with the standard look and this site has an influence so i got busy personalising first i split the grip then decided the standard rubber butt cap looked rubbish so made a new one at work you can see the befoe and after :) "find a penny pick it up and all the day you'll have good luck" i believe thats the saying. its also moved the balance about an inch towards the reel was about 2" before :yeah:

Here are the fist three rods that I have made. The one on the top of the picture is the first one I made and the one in the middle is the most recent, the last one is my second. All have hypalon grips and the 2nd and third ones have nickle-silver/tich winding checks. Feedback appreciated.
