Re: Grateful Dead Rod Split Grip
It's a Gander Mountain Competitor Rod. I modified it from a full cork grip. It's actually for one of my employee's husband who doesn't fish that much so she didn't want to buy and expensive rod but wanted something that looked cool.

Re: Grateful Dead Rod Split Grip
You know, if the marbeling had "Just a tough of grey"... That would make a Jerry Garcia Grateful Dead rod

Re: Grateful Dead Rod Split Grip
Ha... Here husband is a hippy but for some reason plays World of Warcraft. 
It was a customization of an existing rod, a Gander Mountain Competitor.
I haven't quite ventured into doing the whole shabang yet. I plan on it in the near future. |

Re: Grateful Dead Rod Split Grip
Brian,
You did a very good job on that rod. Completing one from start to finish will be no problem for you.
